IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3575 of 2009 BHOLA SAHNI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS with CWJC No.4371 of 2009 RANJU DEVI & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 4 5.03.2010 By this writ application, petitioner had challenged the order of the Assistant Registrar, Cooperative by which on the pretext of maintaining law and order, he had ordered for suspension of fisheries society of the petitioner. This Court wants whether it is open for the Assistant Registrar to pass an order in relation to law and order problems which is covered by Section 144 of Cr.P.C. and the power vests in Sub-Divisional Magistrate. Be that as it may, for whatever reason once the writ application has been filed and private respondents appeared and they have brought to the notice of the Court that Assistant Registrar has withdrawn that order, the writ application has become infructuous. Learned counsel for the petitioner, however, makes a grievance. He submits that as a consequence of the orders of the Assistant Registrar, Cooperative, several of the Jalkars could not have been operated by the Cooperative of the petitioner and to that extent it is entitled to remission in the amounts payable as settlement fee. In my view he is correct. If any such application for remission on such a ground is made to the District Fisheries Officer-cum-Chief Executive Officer who is Settlement Officer, he will pass appropriate orders in that 2 regard within 15 days of such application being filed. With these observation and directions, the writ petitions stands disposed of. V.K. Pandey (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
