The learned counsel for the RespondentState has referred to the counter affidavit filed in the present case and has submitted that the grandfather of the writ petitioner had donated 38 decimals land of Plot No. 94, Khata No. 22, MauzaSofichak, Thana No. 255, Anchal-Barari vide registered deed dated 29.2.1964 for construction of Madhya Vidyalaya Sofichak Maraghiya of Barari Block, District-Katihar. It is further submitted that the Anganbari Kendra is being constructed over
4/4 the land situated at Sofichak, where the school has been constructed on the land donated by the grandfather of the petitioner, vide registered deed dated 29.02.1964, inasmuch as the guidelines & joint decision of the Bihar Education Project Council & the ICDS provide for construction of Anganbari Centres in the campus of the school in order to maintain proper educational atmosphere, to ensure low drop out rate of students & to increase the admission rate, thus the claim put forth by the petitioner in the present writ petition is incorrect, baseless and devoid of any merit.
In view of the aforesaid, I do not find any merit in the present writ petition, hence, the same stands dismissed.
