In absence of any legal right having been established by the petitioner, the learned single Judge has rightly opined that the larger interest of the Nation and the society is more paramount in construction of a railway line linking Hajipur with Sugauli than merely sentiments of the individuals. Appeal has no merit. It is dismissed.
