THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, SAMASTIPUR. -RESPONENTS 02 10.12.2009 Heard learned counsel for the appellant, learned counsel appearing for the Managing Director, Bihar State Co- operative Milk Producers Federation Ltd., Patna, respondent no.4 as well as learned counsel for the State. Petitioner has alleged several complaints against the Managing Director of Mithila Dudgh Utapadak Sahkari Sangh Limited and wants this Court to look into those allegations in public interest. Learned counsel for respondent no.4 has 2 opposed the prayer on the ground that petitioner lost the election for the post of Chairman of Mithila Dudgh Utapadak Sahkari Sangh Limited and thereafter he has taken up the task of tarnishing the image of the Managing Director by filing this Public Interest Litigation which is actuated by personal interest. It has further been submitted that petitioner should have approached the Registrar, Cooperative Societies if there was any kind of genuine dispute. On the other hand, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the instances of misdeeds by the concerned Managing Director should be enquired into by any competent authority, may be even by respondent no.4 so that truth is found out. The petitioner has leveled allegations against a particular individual who is not even named as a party in this writ petition. However, instead of prolonging this litigation by getting the name of the concerned person added as a respondent and by issuing notice, we are of the view that the writ petition be disposed of with liberty to the petitioner that he may approach respondent no.4 with his grievances. This order, in our view, does not affect the Managing Director of 3 Mithila Dugdh Utapadak Sangh Limited and hence he need not be made party to this writ petition. It is made clear that we have not applied our mind to the merits of the case. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of with the liberty aforesaid. (Shiva Kirti Singh, ACJ.)
