The Secretary, Bidyalaya Shiksha Samiti, Navsrijit Primary School, Mandaidih within Patepur Block of Vaishali District. ----------- Respondents 02. 03.02.2009 Under the so-called Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan policy of the Central Government petitioner offered his land by executing a registered deed in this regard which is annexure-1 to the writ application for setting up a school at Mandaidih, Magahia Tola, under Patepur Block, in the district of Vaishali. The land was offered by the petitioner after resolution was adopted by the Aam Sabha and with due agreement of the people in this regard. When every thing failed in its place, the Mukhiya of the village instead of starting construction on the land donated by the petitioner, from the same fund has tried to set up a school at his own land. There is no sanction or approval in this regard in the conduct of the Mukhiya of the village. Petitioner has brought his grievance before the District Magistrate, Vaishali by way of a communication contained in annexure-4 which is dated 7.3.2007. Since nothing came to be done petitioner filed the present writ - 2 - application. Prima facie material has been brought as evidence in support of the writ application as what has been noted above. In that view of the matter the District Magistrate or any person duly authorized by him is responsible to look into the grievance of the petitioner which is not in his individual capacity but as a person who has already donated land by executing a deed after resolution taken in this regard and a direction issued to him. The writ application is disposed of with a direction upon the District Magistrates, Vaishali at Hajipur that he shall get the matter examined and if what has been pointed out in the earlier part of the order is found correct then he shall take corrective steps by issuing direction to the competent authority. The exercise must be done within eight weeks from the date of communication/production of a copy of this order. rkp (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J)
