JUSTICE CHAKRADHARI SHARAN SINGH ORAL ORDER 07-02-2020 There is no representation on behalf of the parties. The petitioner is seeking a direction to the authorities to compensate him adequately for his land having been used by the authorities for installation of a tube-well without following any procedure and without acquiring the land in accordance with law. It is the petitioner's case that the tube-well has been installed over Plot No. 463, Khata No. 49/58, situate at Village Parasbigha under Jehanabad block.
On a careful perusal of the writ application, I find that there is no assertion as to when the said tube-well was installed. If, according to the petitioner, he is entitled for compensation after acquisition of land, he shall be at liberty to approach
