For the State :- Mr. Ray Shivaji Nath, A.A.G.IV. ----------------- 2 17-9-2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. It appears that a private Industrial Training Centre at Motihari has been opened in an area where the petitioner claims to be residing. The grievance of the petitioner is that the Industrial Training Centre should be prohibited from operating in a residential area. It is causing or likely to cause pollution. Considering all the facts and circumstances and particularly the fact that the training centre in question is a private owned centre - 2 - over which the State has no any control so far as pollution is concerned, we find no good reason to take up this issue as public interest issue. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. It goes without saying that if the training centre causes any pollution which is impermissible in law, the petitioner may move the concerned authorities to prevent that pollution.
