IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.12258 of 2008 MANSHI MANJHEE & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 6 7.10.2009 A show cause filed on behalf of the Collector, Siwan, respondent no.2 is accepted. The petitioners have filed the instant writ petition against the encroachment made in his plot by the anti social elements. They got the plots under the Bihar Privileged Persons Homestead Tenancy Act. The petitioner no.1 was granted parcha in respect of Khata No.186, Khesra No.495 measuring an area of one decimal vide Case No.58 of 1974-75. Similarly, the father of petitioner no.2 was granted parcha with respect to the aforesaid Khata and Khesra numbers for an area of one decimal vide Case No.57 of 1974-75. The petitioners submit that some anti social elements have encroached upon their lands against which they filed several representations before the respondent authorities. A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the State wherein in paragraph 6 it has been stated that the encroachments have been removed by the Circle Inspector, Karamchari and Anchal Guard. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the encroachment has not yet been removed. It is surprising that the submissions and the affidavit made by the parties are at variance. Nevertheless as the Parchas 2 KHAN have been issued in favour of the petitioners, the respondent no.3, the S.D.O., Maharajganj would take steps to remove the encroachment, if any, continuing on the lands of the petitioners. With the aforesaid observations and directions, this writ petition stands disposed of. (S.P.Singh,J)
