The singular grievance that has been agitated in this public interest litigation is that encroachments on the public road from Raghunathpur Chowk to Gandal Colony under Turkoliya Anchal, East Champaran, Motihari, require to be removed. Having heard learned counsel for the parties, we are inclined to permit the petitioner to move the Collector under the Bihar Land Encroachment Act and if such an application is filed the said authority shall dwell upon the same and pass an 2 order within the parameters of the said statute within a reasonable period of time. With the aforesaid observation, this application stands disposed of. Neyaz/ (Dipak Misra, CJ.) (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
