IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.13138 of 2011 Shiv Nath Prasad, son of late Sidheshwar Prasad, R. Block, Road No.2, near Quarter No.12, Police Station- Sachiwalaya, Post Office- G.P.O., District-Patna. --- Petitioner. Versus 1. The State Of Bihar through Principal Secretary, Department of Welfare of Scheduled Casts and Tribes, Government of Bihar, Patna. 2. The District Magistrate, Patna. 3. The Deputy Development Commissioner, Patna. 4. The Bhoo Sampada Padadhikari, Bhawan Nirman Bibhag, Bishweshwariya Bhawan, Bailey Road, Patna. 5. The Superintending Engineer, South Bihar Anchal, Bailey Road, Patna ------ Respondents. ---------------------------------- 2. 11.8.2011 Heard Mr. Sanjay Kumar Pandey for the petitioner, and Mr. Anjani Kumar, learned Additional Advocate General No.10. This writ petition is in the nature of a public interest litigation and has been preferred with the prayer to quash order no.67, dated 19.4.2011 (Annexure-3), whereby user of the community hall situate at R. Block Road No.2, Patna, is now notified to accommodate the office of the Bihar State Scheduled Caste and Tribes Commission on temporary basis. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties. It appears that the said community hall is a 2 property of the Government of Bihar and was perhaps intended to accommodate the community hall. There is no material on record to show whether or not user of the property as community hall commenced. However, the Government on reflection decided to convert its user temporarily to accommodate office of the Bihar State Scheduled Caste and Tribes Commission, vide office order no. 67, dated 19.4.2011 (Annexure-3). It appears to us that it is entirely a Government property and its user shall entirely be determined by the State Government so long the purpose is legal and consistent with public policy. The impugned decision of the State Government to use it now for the aforesaid purpose is both lawful and consistent with public policy. It would be extremely unjust and unreasonable it this Court interferes with such executive decisions which are routine matters of governance. It is indeed a frivolous writ petition and is dismissed.
