Counsel for the State AC to GP-21 states that he is adopting the submissions made by the counsel for the Zila Parishad, Munger. 2. Petitioner Boatmen Self Supporting Co-operative Society is aggrieved by the order of the Zila Parishad, Munger dated 16.2.2010, Annexure-3, whereunder the settlement of the Ghat in question made in favour of private respondent no.5 has been extended for the year 2010-11 in the light of the decision of the Zila Parishad dated 9.1.2008, Annexure-4 to extend the settlement by two years. Initially respondent no.5 was allowed settlement for the year 2008-09 then the same was extended for the year 2009-10 and now it has been extended for the year 2010-11. The decision of the Zila Parishad to extend the settlement of the Ghat in question is in the light of the policy decision taken by the Zila Parishad dated 9.1.2008, Annexure-4, which has also the approval of the Commissioner, Munger Division. 3. Counsel for the petitioner society, however, submitted that before extending the settlement of the Ghat in question the matter was - 2 - required to be advertised. The submission made is contrary to the policy decision dated 9.1.2008, Annexure-4 which has the approval of the Commissioner, Munger Division. In the circumstances, I do not see any illegality in such extension. Application is dismissed. Rajesh/ (V.N.Sinha, J.)
