2. Mr. Ramji Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioner, Mr. Surajdeo Yadav, learned AAG-09 for the Staterespondents and Mr. Sunil Kumar, learned counsel for the respondent No. 6, are present and they are heard.
3. The main issue raised by the petitioner in this writ petition is that upon his raiyati land purchased through a registered sale deed (Annexure-P/1), the District Collector, Patna (respondent No. 3), has taken steps for filling soil even without affixing a notice board showing the scheme of the Government under which the said soil-filling work has started, which shows the said act to be against the provisions of law and in this regard, the petitioner has filed several representations before the respondent Nos. 2, 3, 4 & 5 but even then no action has been taken.
4. Learned AAG-09 for the State-respondents submits that as the petitioner's representations filed before the respondent Nos. 2, 3, 4 & 5, are still pending, so, the District Collector, Patna (respondent No. 3) may be directed to dispose of the petitioner's representation dated 05.08.2025, which is said to have been filed by the petitioner before him and the District
4/4 Collector, Patna (respondent No. 3) is the appropriate authority to redress the petitioner's issue.
5. Considering the aforesaid submission as well as the issue raised by the petitioner, this Court finds that the issue raised by the petitioner is premature for consideration by this Court under its writ jurisdiction, however, District Collector, Patna (respondent No. 3) is directed to look into the grievance raised by the petitioner in his representation dated 05.08.2025 and dispose of the same as per the provisions of law, in the next four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this Court's order or production of the same. Accordingly, the instant writ petition stands dispose of.
