D.B.CIVIL WRIT PETITION N0. 563/2007 Trilochan & ors. v. State of Rajasthan & ors. Date of order : 14.03.2007 HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE SHRI S.N.JHA HON'BLE SHRI JUSTICE GOVIND MATHUR Shri Pankaj Sharma for the petitioners This writ petition has been filed as a public interest litigation challenging the decision of the State Government to construct a mega highway through Hanumangarh town connecting it with Kishangarh in Ajmer district. It is said that the construction of the highway will lead to traffic hazards and cause pollution. It is submitted that normally highways do not pass through towns. Earlier, according to the petitioner, the Planning Department had prepared plan for construction of a bye-pass road outside the city. After hearing counsel for the petitioner, we do not think it is a case in which High Court should interfere. Town planning is finalised by experts and Court does not have the expertise and knowledge of the local conditions on the basis of which a different view could be taken. We are thus not inclined to interfere in the matter. The writ petition is dismissed. mathur/ (GOVIND MATHUR) J. (S.N.JHA), C.J.
