The petitioner claims to be a social worker. He seeks a writ of mandamus against the State of Bihar to implement the Gram Nyayalayas Act, 2008. Learned Advocate Mr. Vijay Kumar Singh has 2 appeared for the writ petitioner. It is not his case that the aforesaid Gram Nyayalayas Act has been brought into operation by publication in the Official Gazette of India nor it is his case that it has been made applicable to the State of Bihar as envisaged by sub-section (3) of Section 1 of the Act. In above circumstances, in our opinion, the petition is misconceived. Hence, rejected. Dilip ( R.M. Doshit, CJ ) ( Jyoti Saran, J ) .
