JUDGEMENT 1. In this public interest litigation, the petitioner has prayed for many a relief, but we have been apprised at the bar that earlier this Court in CWJC No. 2960 of 2009 while disposing of a public interest litigation belonging to the Food Corporation of India, had passed the following order: "Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel appearing for the respondents. The petitioner claims to be a villager from a village under Police Station, Bikramganj, District-Rohtas. He wants the Food Corporation of India to improve its system under which procurement of foodgrains is made from the agriculturists/farmers. The petitioner has annexed certain papers to show that the office of the Food Corporation of India at Gaya had committed some irregularities which were noticed by the regional office which issued a memo eliciting response from the concerned oficial. The procurement of foodgrains from the farmers at pre-determined price is under scheme to improve the conditions of farmers and to ensure a minimum price for their produce. The menace of middleman cheating the farmers and procuring foodgrains at a lesser price and then making money by selling the same to the Corporation is a problem which the Corporation is bound to address in its regular course of business. If the Centre for procurement of foodgrains is not sufficient, we are sure that the Corporation will look into that aspect of the matter also as per resources available with the Corporation. If the petitioner can give better suggestions to tackle the menace of middleman harming the interest of farmers, we are sure that the Corporation will look into those suggestions carefully and try to tackle this problem before the next procurement season. With these observations, the writ petition is disposed of." 2. At this juncture, Mr. Mahendra Prasad Gupta, learned counsel for the petitioner, submitted that earlier order meets almost all the requirements, but one singular grievance remains to be mitigated. It is urged that the payments to the farmers who sell their produce to Food Corporation of India or any other Government agency, should be made through Account Payee Cheques. 3. We are of the considered opinion that the said prayer deserves to be accepted. It is urged that the payments to the farmers who sell their produce to Food Corporation of India or any other Government agency, should be made through Account Payee Cheques. 3.

Accordingly, it is directed that purchasers from the farmers, be it the State Government or the Food Corporation of India or any agency engaged by the State Government, shall pay to the farmers by Account Payee Cheques so that there would be transparency which is the spine of the good governance in a body polity. The State Government shall issue appropriate direction in this regard within two weeks hence, failing which official concerned shall face severe consequences.
