IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3686 of 2007 Anup Mukhia son of Late Sukan Mukhia, Resident of village- Balath, P.S. Kusheshwarsthan, District- Darbhanaga. ………. Petitioner. VERSUS 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The District Magistrate, Darbhanga. 3. The Sub-Divisional Officer, Biroul, District- Darbhanga. 4. The Block Development Officer, Kusheshwarsthan, District- Darbhanga. 5. The Panchayat Sevak, Gram Panchayat Raj, Bisaharia, P.S.- Kusheshwarsthan, District- Darbhanga. 6. Mukhia, Gram Panchayat Raj, Bisaharia, P.S.- Kusheshwarsthan, District- Darbhanga. ………Respondents. ----------- 06 28.11.2008 The petitioner claims to have done some work for the Gram Panchayat Raj, Bisaharia on the orders of the Gram Sabha. On completion of work he reported the matter to the Junior Engineer. It is averred in the writ petition that the petitioner then moved the Sub- Divisional Officer, who directed for payment, but still no payment is being made. In the circumstances, I direct that petitioner along with copy of a order of this Court should make a detailed representation before the District Magistrate-cum-Collector, Darbhanga, bringing on record all necessary papers including recommendation of the Sub- Divisional Officer, Biroul and other papers. The collector would get an enquiry made from the Panchayat, in question. If it is found that any payment is due for work done by the petitioner for the said Panchayat, ensure that payment is made by the Panchayat. All this exercise should be completed by the Collector within a period of six months from the time when the petitioner files an application before the Collector along 2 with a copy of the order of this Court. In case, the Collector finds that payment is not due he would pass a reasoned order and furnish the same to the petitioner. With this direction, the writ petition is disposed of.
