Present: Mr.Mohinder Singh Joshi, Advocate, for the petitioner. *** ORDER The present petition has been filed under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for issuance of direction to the official respondents to conduct inquiry and take appropriate action on the complaint filed by the petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that respondents No.5 and 6 have encroached upon the land of the Gram Panchayat and a great loss has been caused to it. The complaint Annexure P-2 was submitted to the police on 5th January, 2011 but no action has been taken so far. Heard the arguments of learned counsel for the petitioner and have also gone through the contents of the petition as well as other documents available on the file. Learned counsel for the petitioner has not been able to show anything whether the said representation was sent to the police authorities or not as there is nothing on the record to show that this representation was sent by post or handed over to the police by hand. Simply by saying that no action has been taken by the police on the representation filed by the Panchyat is not sufficient to issue directions. In para No.2 of the petition it has been mentioned that respondents No. 5 and 6 have been advised by the Panchayat not to Crl.Misc No M- 1905 of 2011 [2] dig out the bricks but still they are adamant to dig out the fixed cemented bricks. In view of the grievances of the petitioner, remedy is to approach the concerned departmental authority but there is nothing on record to show whether the concerned authority was approached by the petitioner or not. No ground for interference in the petition is made out. The petition is dismissed. However, the petitioner is at liberty to approach the concerned departmental authority for redressal of grievance as mentioned in the petition. (DAYA CHAUDHARY) January 20, 2011 JUDGE raghav
