IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3672 of 2009 In The Matter of Letter of Kalindi Devi …….Petitioner. Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The Secretary Law Department, Govt. of Bihar, Old Secretariat, Patna. 3. The Chairman Bihar State Electricity Board Bailey Road, Patna. 4. The Member Secretary, Bihar State Legal Services Authority, Budh Marg, Patna. ……Respondents. ----------- 07. 29.06.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State of Bihar. On behalf of State, copy of Notification dated 23.06.2009 has been produced to show that full body of the Bihar State Legal Services Authority has now been constituted. In view of aforesaid happy development, it is expected that the authority shall hold its general meeting and shall consider the issue of constitution of permanent Lok Adalat for public utility services at an early date. It is clear from the materials on record that this issue on the agenda of the authority in its last meeting was adjourned and later the adjourned agenda could not be taken up because the authority itself was not constituted for a long time and hence no general meeting could take place. - 2 - Some other issues were sought to be raised by the petitioner such as loss of interest etc. to individuals on account of non-availability of permanent Lok Adalats for public utility services. Such matters may be agitated by the concerned individuals but they are not fit to be taken up in public interest because the concerned individuals had alternative options to agitate their grievances before the Consumer Courts, the Civil Courts or in appropriate cases even through writ petitions. In the facts and circumstances, this writ petition which has been taken up by the Court suo motu as Public Interest Litigation on the basis of a letter, is finally disposed of. A copy of the Notification dated 23.06.2009 be kept on record. Vikash/- (Shiva Kirti Singh, ACJ.) (Anjana Prakash, J.)
