RESPONDENTS ----------- FOR THE PETITIONERS :- MR. BRAJESH KUMAR,ADVOCATE FOR THE STATE :- PYUSH LALL, A.C. TO AAG-III -------- 17. 07.12.2010 This matter has lingered for over two years in this Court as Public Interest Litigation. The order dated 25-6-2010 shows that on behalf of State learned Additional Advocate General-III made a suggestion that 2.6 acres of land allotted to the college for construction of its building may be handed over immediately so that college may use that land to begin the building construction but for remaining land, out of 5 acres allotted to the college, one year time was required by the Road Construction Department to shift its 2 hot mix plant. Now for almost six months the matter has remained pending because the petitioner could not ascertain whether the college will need the remaining part of the land i.e. 2.4 acres earlier to one year or whether it will suffer no injury if one year time is allowed to the State for shifting of the hot mix plant by the Road Construction Department. The stand of the petitioner is that he has no competence to decide that issue. This Public Interest Litigation is only to benefit a Governmental college so that it may have its own building over a land measuring 5 acres already allotted to the college by the State. Simply, possession over that land has not been handed over to the college as yet. In the facts of the case, we find the suggestion of the learned A.C. to AAG-III to be reasonable and we dispose of this writ petition by directing that 2.6 acres of the allotted land should be put in possession of the college within one month from today and thereafter the remaining portion of land should be handed over to the college by Ist. of July, 2011 when the period of one year would be over. The writ petition, accordingly, stands disposed of. 3 Let a copy of this order be handed over to learned counsel for the State for communication and compliance. Naresh ( Shiva Kirti Singh, J.)
