Movable properties of Yadgir PWD office attached after court order
The action follows an order passed in an Execution Petition filed by S.S. Police Patil and Company seeking payment for completed work
On Thursday, the movable properties of the Public Works Department (PWD) office in Yadgir were attached by court staff, following an order from the Principal District and Sessions Court. This action was taken in response to an Execution Petition (EP) filed by S.S. Police Patil and Company, as reported by advocate Mallikarjun V. Karigouda.
The PWD office was found to have failed to clear an outstanding balance of ₹30 lakh for a completed road widening project, leading to the current dispute dating back to 2017-18. The project was to widen roads from Ambedkar Circle to Hattikuni Cross in Old Yadgir City. Previously, the Yadgir City Municipal Council also faced a similar legal action when court staff seized its movable assets for unpaid compensation owed to a woman whose property had been acquired.
The seized equipment, including computers, chairs, and tables, were transferred to the court premises for further proceedings. The PWD officials have yet to release an official statement regarding the court-ordered attachment.
