Shahi, Advocate General Mr. Vikash Kumar, Adv 4/ 22-May-09 On 12-05-2009, we had granted one week time to learned counsel for the respondent No.5, the Chairman Bihar State Bridge Construction Corporation to seek instruction. Unfortunately, no instruction has been given by the respondents but the learned Advocate General appears and submits that concern of the petitioner that in the garb of widening of the road the residents of Patlipurta Colony may not be put to a great hardship in maintaining the drinking water connection, sewerage connection, telephone connection etc shall be taken care of by respondent No.5, the Chairman Bihar State Bridge Construction Corporation, the executing agency. We accept the suggestion of the parties that the respondent No.5 shall give an opportunity to respondent No.7 through its 2 honorary Secretary to present their apprehensions in the matter so that these apprehensions may be taken care of and remedial action is taken before investing public money and constructing the road. It is made clear that this Court is not opposed to construction of the road but the concerned executing agencies, respondent No.5 as well as other departments are expected to take care that other basic amenities of the residents of the Patliputra Colony are not adversely affected. The respondent No.5 should therefore give opportunity of hearing to respondent No.7 without any delay and preferably within two days from today. The writ petition is disposed of. Let a copy of this order be handed over to learned counsel for the petitioner, Mr. Vivek Prasad and also to learned Advocate General, Patna, Bihar. perwez (Shiva Kirti Singh, ACJ.)
