Ashok Yadav @ Ashok Kumar Yadav son of late Brahamdeo Prasad Yadav resident of village Bhairopur Kaluha PS Katoria District Banka Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR through the Principal Secretary, Road Construction Department, Patna 2. Engineer in Chief, Road Construction Department, Patna 3. Superintending Engineer, Road Construction Circle, Bhagalpur 4. Collector, Banka 5. Executive Engineer, Road Construction Division, Banka 6. Assistant Engineer, Road Construction Sub-division Banka ----------- 2 29-06-2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the State. Petitioners belong to different villages under Katoria PS in the district of Banka. They are not satisfied with the way in which Kanwariya Path is being constructed by the respondent authorities. Such Path is being constructed for improving infrastructure so that Kanwariyas who carry holy water from Sultanganj to Deoghar for offering to Lord Baidyanath may not feel inconvenienced in the way. The grievance of the petitioners is that construction of the Path is not strictly in accordance with the sanctioned DPR. In course of construction of such a Path the authorities must be given some room by way of space for play of joints so that there is no difficulty to the Kanwariyas and the root or the 2 Path is constructed expeditiously and may serve its purpose. DPR is definitely for the purpose of guiding the whole project. We are confident that the concerned authorities shall keep public interest in mind in constructing the Kanwaria Path. If the petitioners have any useful suggestion to make, they will be at liberty to file a representation in the matter before the Executive Engineer, Road Construction Division, Banka, respondent no.5 as well as to Engineer-in-Chief, Road Construction Department, Patna, respondent no.2. If the suggestions given by the petitioners are not of any worth, a suitable reply in brief should be given by the concerned respondents. The writ petition is disposed of.
