The Circle Officer-cum-Block Development Officer, Makhdumpur, District- Jehanabad. 6. The Executive Officer, Nagar Panchayat, Makhdumpur, District-Jehanabad. 7. Smt. Shanti Devi, wife of Kishori Sao, resident of Village Makhdumpur, P.S. Makhdumpur, District-Jehanabad. …. …. Respondents ----------- 3. 10.2.2010. The petitioner, as pro bono publico, has preferred this writ petition stating, inter alia, that the road, namely, Badi Laxmi Asthan to Sinduria Tola under the Nagar Panchayat, Makhdumpur, though has almost been completed, yet the work has been stopped as the road in question has to go over Plot No.206/161, Khata No.170/45, which is claimed by respondent no.7. In view of the aforesaid, we only direct the District Magistrate, Jehanabad to look into the matter and do the needful so that the construction work of the road is not affected. The concerned authority, as directed hereinabove, - 2 - shall take steps as required in law with quite promptitude. Be it clarified, when we say that the construction work would not be affected that does not mean the property right of respondent no.7 would stand crucified at the whim and fancy of the District Magistrate. With the aforesaid direction the writ petition stands disposed of. Let a copy of the order passed today be handed over to Mr. Arvind Kumar learned counsel for the state for onward transmission to the District Magistrate to do the needful as stated hereinabove.
