IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.16920 of 2007 BRAHMADEO YADAV, SON OF SRI HRIDAYA NARAYAN YADAV, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE SABAILA, P.S. SINGHESHWAR ASTHAN, DISTRICT MADHEPURA. ---- PETITIONER Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR. 2. THE ADDITIONAL SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE AND LAND REFORMS DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE COLLECTOR, MADHEPURA. 4. THE ADDITIONAL COLLECTOR, MADHEPURA. 5. THE DISTRICT LAND ACQUISITION OFFICER, MADHEPURA. ---- RESPONDENTS ----------- 6 13.7.2010 The petitioner has filed this writ application for deleting lands of Mouja Gajarhat, Khesra No. 1716 (Part) measuring an area of 1.93 acres out of 2.8 acres, Khesra No. 1718 (Part) measuring an area of 33 decimals out of 40 decimals, Khesra No. 1719 (Part) measuring an area of 77 decimals out of 86 decimals and Khesra No. 1720 (Part) measuring an area of 1.08 acres out of 3.50 acres from the notification under Section 4 of the Land Acquisition Act. A counter affidavit has been filed in which it has been categorically stated that the lands of the petitioner cannot be deleted from the acquisition proceeding on the ground that they form part of chunk of lands which has been acquired for the B.N. Mandal University and the lands of the petitioner fall in the centre of the chunk of land acquired. It is true that some lands have been deleted from the acquisition proceeding but those lands have fall on the periphery on the boundary of the chunk of land which has to be acquired. Parts of petitioner’s land have in fact been excluded which from acquisition, would be apparent from paragraph nos. 8 and 9 of the counter affidavit. I find that reasons for not exempting the petitioner’s land is fair and quite reasonable; as such the prayer 2 regarding exemption is dismissed The petitioner has raised some other issues as well. Such issues may be raised at the appropriate stage of Land Acquisition Proceeding. This Court finds no reason to interfere with the order. This application is dismissed. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
