That being so, this Court would direct the Collector of Darbhanga District 3 to ensure that the representation of the petitioner if not disposed of till date must be disposed of now in terms of the revised Government circular dated 10.12.2009. With the aforementioned observation and direction, this application is disposed of. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
