Amanullah, Advocate ------------ P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ------------ Dated, the 1st October, 2008. Mrs. Sanjana, Advocate appears and prays for adjournment, we are unable to accede to the request as we find that earlier on 13th August, 2008, 22nd August, 2008 and 15th September, - 2 - 2008 adjournment was sought on behalf of the petitioner. We accordingly reject the prayer for adjournment. 2. We asked Mrs. Sanjana, Advocate to argue the matter but she refused to do that. 3. Since the writ petition has been filed in the nature of public interest litigation, with the assistance of counsel for the Bihar Industrial Development Authority (BIADA), we perused the writ petition and the documents annexed thereto. 4. The petitioner is the president of Bihar Industrial Development Authority (BIADA) Employees Union. By means of this writ petition he has prayed that enquiry be ordered either by C.B.I. or Vigilance or any other impartial agency against K.K. Pathak, former Managing Director, Bihar Industrial Development Authority (BIADA) for having passed illegal and irregular orders. It is alleged that K.K. Pathak played fraud with public exchequer and misused huge amount of money in absence of any authority. He committed wrong after wrong by directing the regular employees of BIADA to remain on contractual service and transferring a larger number of employees against the interest of the Corporation. 5. A careful scan of the writ petition shows that except bald allegations, the facts are neither specific in respect of illegalities or irregularities committed by erstwhile Managing Director, K.K. Pathak nor the allegations are supported by any reliable material. - 3 - 6. We are afraid, the Court is not supposed to make roving and fishing enquiry into non-specific allegations. We are, thus, satisfied that the writ petition does not deserve to be admitted. It is dismissed in limine. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J Pawan/-
