IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR ORDER Gram Panchayat,Dasaniya vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors. (S.B.Civil Writ Petition No. 6476/2007 ) Date of Order:- 25.10.2007. HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SANGEET LODHA Mr. Sunil Beniwal , for the petitioner. BY THE COURT:- This writ petition is directed against the order dated 08.02.2007 passed by Additional District Collector (First), Jodhpur, whereby a revision petition preferred by one Shri Chena Ram assailing the validity of the resolution adopted by the gram Panchayat, Dasania in its meeting held on 20.05.2004, taking a decision for removal of the encroachment made by the revision petitioner Shri Chena Ram & others, has been rejected and it has been further ordered that the action under Rule 165 of Rajasthan Panchayati Raj Rules, 1996 may be taken against all other persons as well who have encroached upon abadi land of the Gram Panchayat. The petitioner-Gram Panchayat is aggrieved by these general directions issued by the Revisional Authority. It is contended by the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner that it is not possible for the Gram Panchayat to implement the directions issued by the Revisional Authority. It is alleged that as a matter of fact the encroachment of Shri Chena Ram has been protected by Additional District Collector by passing such order. A bare perusal of the order goes to show that the Revisional Authority has nowhere directed that encroachment of Shri Chena Ram should be removed only after taking action against the other persons under Rule 165 of the Rules 1996, who have encroached upon the abadi land of the panchayat. It is beyond comprehension that the petitioner panchayat should assail the validity of directions given for the removal of encroachment upon the abadi land of Panchayat. As a matter of fact, the Gram Panchayat is under an obligation to take action in accordance with law against all the persons who have encroached upon the abadi land of the Gram Panchayat. In my considered opinion, the order impugned passed by the Revisional Authority does not suffer from any infirmity or illegality. The writ petition preferred by the petitioner is devoid of any merit . It is hereby dismissed with no order as to costs. (SANGEET LODHA), J.
