Respondents 2nd set. ------- Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. Petitioner claims to be interested in maintaining the status of a public land which is allegedly being threatened by respondents no.8 to 14 who are private persons. Allegedly, those private persons had taken illegal settlement over gairmajarua aam land but according to the petitioner the authorities have cancelled those orders. The grievance of the petitioner is that in spite of order of the District Magistrate, Madhubani contained in his letter dated 27th August, 2009 (Annexure-8) for lodging FIR against some officials etc. no action is being taken. This Court is of the view that facts are being inquired into at the instance of the District Magistrate and action has already been proposed by him and it will not be proper for this Court to express its views in this matter at the present stage. The writ petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to approach the District Magistrate, Madhubani, who is, in our view, competent to enforce his lawful orders.
