WP(C) 4698/2010 BEFORE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE B.P.KATAKEY Heard Mr SC Biswas, learned counsel for the petitioner as well as Mr M Khataniar , learned standing counsel for the Education Department, appearing for the respo ndents. The petitioner, by the present petition has challenged the communication dated 2nd March 2009 issued by the Deputy Inspector of Schools, Barpeta grantin g permission to shift the K. Dighi School campus to a safer place, after obtaini ng the consent from the people of the locality, due to the threat of erosion pos ed by the river Brahmaputra. The petitioner has also challenged the communicatio n dated 19th August 2009 issued by the Deputy Inspector of Schools, Barpeta to t he Headmaster of the aforesaid school to take necessary steps to fetch the belon gings of the school from the previous place to the new place. According to the p etitioner, such shifting of school has caused great hardships to the students of the locality, and because of that they are not in a position to attend school, which is 4 kilometers away from the earlier place. In a writ proceeding it is not possible to ascertain which of the two pl aces would be best-suited to the school and it is the authority which can decide the same. It appears from the communication dated 2nd March 2009 issued by the Deputy Inspector of Schools that the shifting was necessitated due to the threat of erosion posed by the river Brahmaputra. That being the position, if the people of the locality where the school was earlier set up have any grievance they may approach the appropriate authorit y seeking redressal thereof. In view of the above, the present writ petition is disposed of with the observation that the petitioner may approach the Director of Elementary Educatio n, Assam by means of a representation seeking redressal of his grievances, if an y and if such representation is filed, the same shall definitely be considered a nd disposed of by the authority in accordance with law. Such exercise shall be d one within a period of three months from the date of submission of such represen tation together with a certified copy of this order and a copy of the writ petit ion and the annexures appended thereto by the petitioner before the said authori ty. It is needless to say that before considering such representation of the pet itioner, the opinion of all concerned should be obtained by the Director. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs.
