Siwan, Distt. Siwan (Bihar) …. Appellant/ Petitioner VERSUS 1. The State of Bihar through the Commissioner- cum- Secretary, Revenue and Land Reforms Department, Bihar, Patna 2. The Collector, Patna 3. The Land Acquisition Officer, Patna 4. The DCLR, Patna Collectorate, Patna 5. The Circle Officer, Patna Sadar 6. The Divisional Railway Manager, East Central Railways Danapur, Division, Danapur, Distt. Patna … Respondents/ Respondents -------- Heard the parties. It may be true that petitioner did not know that 1.8 acres of land belonging to his great grandfather was acquired for the Railways in the year 1952 but his action in challenging the legality of an acquisition made in the year 1952 through a writ petition filed in the year 2008 on the ground that paper publication may not have been done properly is too much a belated challenge and the Writ Court rightly dismissed the writ petition. It is admitted that the Railways have utilized the land by making constructions as per their need. - 2 - We are not persuaded to interfere in the matter. The appeal is dismissed. sk (Shiva Kirti Singh, J.) (Shivaji Pandey, J. )
