ANCHAL ADHIKARI, HARSIDHI ANCHAL, DISTT.- EAST CHAMPARAN ----------- 02. 02.12.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The petitioner seeks a direction for removal of encroachment from the public road over Plot No. 455 of village Hasuaha, Thana No. 140 under harsidhi Anchal , District- East Champaran. It is submitted that administrative enquiry have already been made, reports submitted and encroachment confirmed. Notwithstanding, the same no final orders are being passed and no steps are being taken for removal of the encroachment. If what the petitioner contends be correct, the only appropriate order to be passed at this stage is to direct the District Magistrate, East Champaran to examine the records of the case himself and then ensure that appropriate orders in accordance with law are passed by the appropriate authority, competent to deal with encroachment matters by starting a proper proceeding, if not already started, and take such proceeding to its logical conclusion within a maximum period of four months from 2 the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Learned counsel for the State submits that the connotations of the words in the order of the Court “to its logical conclusion” are more than enough indication of the manner in which the District Magistrate is required to proceed. The apprehensions of the petitioner to the contrary therefore stands belied. The application stands disposed. P.K ( Navin Sinha, J.)
