RAMESHWAR SINGH MALIK, J.(Oral) Feeling aggrieved against the order dated 26.09.2014 (Anexure P-4) whereby sanction was granted for another post of Lambardar of general category in village Salana Dara Singh Wala, petitioners have approached this Court, by way of instant writ petition under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India, seeking a writ in the nature of Certiorari, for quashing the impugned order. Heard learned counsel for the parties.

It is the exclusive domain of the Administrative Authorities to see as to how many posts of Lambardar would be there in any Seema Sharma 2016.12.03 09:51 I attest the accuracy and authencity of the document

particular village. Learned counsel for the petitioners failed to point out any patent illegality or perversity in the impugned order. Further no prejudice of any kind, whatsoever, has been shown, which might have been caused to the petitioner by passing impugned order (Annexure P-4), warranting interference at the hands of this Court, while exercising its writ jurisdiction under Articles 226/227 of the Constitution of India. In addition to the above, petitioners have got no locus standi to approach this Court, opposing the creation of another post of Lambardar of general category in their village. Infact, it does not appeal to reason as to why the petitioners are opposing such a proposal of creating another post of Lambardar in their village.

In view of the above, present writ petition has been found wholly misconceived, bereft of merit and without any substance, thus, it must fail. No case for interference has been made out. Resultantly, with the abovesaid observations made, present writ petition stands dismissed, however, with no order as to costs.
