IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.8646 of 2008 Suresh Singh, son of Sheo Janam Singh, village Manjurahi, PS and District Aurangabad – Petitioner. Vs. 1) The State of Bihar, 2) The Dist. Magistrate, Aurangabad. 3) The Circle Officer, Aurangabad – Respondents. 5 17.11.2011 Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner has filed this writ petition claiming that the land appertaining to plot no. 1274 which is Ghair Mazrua Aam land, is being used as a road by the villagers and as such the State authorities should not allot the land to the C.R.P.C. for the purpose of setting up a camp and building a boundary. Annexure 6 is the photograph which has been annexed to the writ petition showing that it is a field which has greenery on it and the villagers are using it for the purposes of going to their fields or for the purpose of transporting their agricultural products. Just north to the alleged plot of land is the main road. A counter affidavit has been filed by the Circle Officer wherein it has been stated that the land is Ghair Mazrua Aam and was acquired by the Industry Department vide Land Acquisition Case No. 5/1987-88. Out of the total land, 3 decimals was handed over to the Industry Department which is now being handed over to the C.R.P.F. to set up a camp as the area is prone to nexal movement. It has been admitted that for the past two to three years the villagers were using the land for the purpose of taking their tractors etc. on the land. It has been specifically stated at 2 paragraph 16 that the villagers will not be affected by utilization of this land by the State or the Central Government as there is a road a few yards north to the acquired land which leads to the main road. At present the disputed land has been taken on lease by the C.R.P.F. for a period of ten years. Considering all the facts in this case and the counter affidavit stating that there already exists a road which can be utilized by the villagers to connect them to the main road, I see no merit in this writ petition. This writ petition is dismissed. haque ( Sheema Ali Khan, J .)
