IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.7201 of 2009 LAKSHANDEV MANDAL s/o Shiv Nandan Mandal, R/o Basuki Bihari, PS Madhwapur District Madhubani Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR through the Principal Secretary, Rural Development Department, Government of Bihar, Patna 2. The DM Madhubani 3. The Sub-divisional Officer Benipatti, Dist. Madhubani 4. Block Development Officer, Madhwapur Dist. Madhubani 5. Mukhiya, Basuki Bihari (Uttari) Gram Panchayat, PS Madhwapur, District Madhubani. ----------- 2 30-06-2009 Heard the parties. The petitioner has filed this writ petition by way of Public Interest Litigation mainly against Mukhiya of Basuki Bihari (North) Gram Panchayat under Madhwapur police station in the district of Madhubani alleging that he has indulged in several illegalities and irregularities and inspite of complaints the higher authorities like Sub-divisional Officer and Block Development Officer have not taken any action. Action against an individual Mukhiya does not appear to be an appropriate matter for public interest litigation. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner that, if so advised, he may approach the statutory authority, the State Government with all the materials to seek relief against the concerned Mukhiya.
