IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6946 of 2010 KANCHAN KUMARI D/o Late Satrughan Lal Karn, Resident of Village-Chatra, P.S.-Arer, Dist-Madhubani. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR. 2. District Magistrate, Madhubani. 3. Deputy Collector, Madhubani. 4. Sub-Divisional Officer, Benipatti, Dist-Madhubani. 5. Block Development Officer, Benipatti, Dist-Madhubani. 6. Pallavi Kumari D/O Yogendra Lal Karn, resident of village-Chatra, P.S. Arer, Dist Madhubani. ----------- 2 13.1.2011 From the appellate order of the Collector dated 5.1.2010 contained as Annexure-6, it is apparent that though he has noticed all the submissions made on behalf of the petitioner, but has not dealt with any of them. He has merely held that the order of the S.D.O was passed after enquiry and therefore, the same was corrected. Hence, he has dismissed the appeal of the petitioner. From the submissions made on behalf of the petitioner, as noticed in the said order, It appears that the same required consideration by the Collector and his specific findings in respect of the same. The same has not been done. The order therefore stands vitiated on the ground of non application of mind. In the circumstances, the said 2 impugned order of the Collector passed in appeal, is set aside and the matter is remitted back to him with a direction to consider the stand of the petitioner and deal with the same and give specific findings in their regard and thereafter, pass final orders in accordance with law in the matter, preferably within three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order.
