For the State:- Sri Anjani Kumar(AAG.10). ----------- Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioners should delete the name of Respondent No.8 otherwise this writ petition cannot be entertained as a Public Interest 2 Litigation. 3. The three petitioners are residents of District East Champaran and they want direction from this Court in public interest for repair the following two roads: (i) Village road from Durga Mandir of Raghunathpur village to the house of Mohar Sahni [4 KM]. (ii) Village road from Mai Asthan village Raghunathpur via Middle School, Raghunathpur [3.5 KM]. Both the roads are said to be in works division no.2 Motihari. 4. Today, we have disposed of similar public interest litigation bearing CWJC No.1074/2011(Sudarshan Rai & Ors v. The State of Bihar & Ors.). In that writ petition which was also filed as a PIL, the prayer was for repair of two village roads in the district of Motihari under Motihari works division no.2. Hence this writ petition is also disposed of in terms of that very order. perwez (Shiva Kirti Singh, J.) (Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J.)
