Out of the lands in question the petitioner admits to have gifted 1 katha of land to the State of Bihar for construction of the school building and the rest 10 kathas and 11 dhurs are in possession of the petitioner. It is further pleaded that T.S. No. 12/2002 was filed in the court of Munsif, Siwan which was decreed in favour of the plaintiff i.e. the petitioner. After that 144 Cr. P.C. proceeding has also been initiated. It is alleged that the State authorities are trying to get possession over the rest of the lands. The petitioner is directed to bring a copy of this order to the notice of the Block Development Officer, Basantpur who will ensure that the decree passed in the title suit is respected and 2 will also ensure that the State authorities should not try and take possession of lands beyond the deed of gift. It is not expected of the State authorities whether it be the Block Development Officer, the Circle Officer or the authorities of the Education Department to act in contravention to the law of the land. This writ petition is, thus, disposed of with the aforesaid observation and direction. haque ( Sheema Ali Khan, J .)
