IN THE HIGH COURT OF BOMBAY AT GOA WRIT PETITION NO. 104 OF 2011 PRIME MINERAL EXPORTS PVT. LTD., REP. BY DIRECTOR MR. APOORVA MISRA AND ANR., ... Petitioners Versus STATE OF GOA THROUGH CHIEF SECRETARY AND 3 ORS., ... Respondents Shri S. G. Dessai, Senior Advocate with Shri Shivan Dessai, Advocate for the petitioners. Shri S. S. Kantak, Advocate General with Shri A. Kamat, Additional Government Advocate for respondent Nos.1 to 4. Coram:- S. C. DHARMADHIKARI & F. M. REIS, JJ. Date:- 21st March, 2011 P.C.:- By this petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioners are seeking a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ or direction directing the respondents to clear the blockages and ensure that the roads are unobstructed for free flow of traffic and particularly for the petitioners trucks to ply from Naibag-Dhargal-Karaswada to Sirsaim in Bardez Taluka. In this petition, while issuing notice on 24-2-2011, this Court has highlighted the seriousness of the problems faced by the petitioners inasmuch as their vehicles were not allowed to ply on a public road by certain groups. Some instances have been set out in the Order and the Court has observed that even if the citizens and residents, in particular, have any grievances about noise and dust pollution or rash and negligent driving or any such other issues, they can agitate peacefully and bring their grievances to the notice of the authorities and not block the roads so as to obstruct smooth flow of the traffic and vehicles. After the matter was heard for some time, we are satisfied that the statements made by the learned Advocate General and particularly that the respondents will take necessary steps including providing police assistance whenever sought for by the petitioners so as to avoid any unpleasant situation hereinafter would sufficiently protect the petitioners interest. Needless, therefore, to direct the authorities to act in accordance with law because we are confident that the statements made by the learned Advocate General on behalf of the State reveal that the authorities have understood the issue raised in the petition and now the problems faced by the petitioners are present to them. They therefore would take all such steps as are needed to ensure free flow of the vehicles of the petitioners. Accepting these statements made as undertakings of the respondents to this Court, the petition is disposed of in these terms. S. C. DHARMADHIKARI, J. F. M. REIS, J. RD.
