IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA C.W.J.C. No.5815 of 2009 1. Yodha Sahani, S/O Rambriksha Sahani 2. Bindeshwqri Sahani, S/O late Faguni Sahani Both are residents of village Devapur, P.S. Patahi, district East Champaran, Motihari .. Petitioners Versus 1. The State of Bihar 2. The Director, Fisheries Department, Old Secretariat, Government of Bihar, Patna 3. The District Magistrate, East Champaran, Motihari 4. The District Fisheries Officer-cum-Chief Executive Officer, East Champaran, Motihari .. Respondents **** /3/ 20.05.2009 Heard the counsel for the petitioners and the State. 2. This application has been filed by the petitioners for a direction to the District Fisheries Officer-cum-Chief Executive Officer, East Champaran, Motihari, for re- schedulement of his period of settlement, which is going to expire in 2011. Petitioners’ case is that on account of pendency of C.W.J.C. No. 2370 of 2002 the petitioners’ society could not take advantage of settlement during the period of pendency of the writ application. In this back ground, the petitioners’ society is entitled for re- schedulement of settlement period. 3. On consideration of the pleading and the writ - 2 - application, I am of the view that such prayer should have been made by the petitioners in the earlier writ application itself, but, it was not done. However, there is a provision under Bihar Jalkar Management Act, 2006, under Section 12 which deals with claim of reschdulement or remission. Petitioners may approach the appropriate authority under Section 12 of the Bihar Fisheries Jalkar Management Act, 2006, for consideration of its claim. 4. This application is disposed off. Cp:2/S.A.
