Mastafapur Gramyudyog Samiti And ANR. v. The State Of West Bengal And ORS.

D/L 32 13.03.2025 Kausik ct.no.35 W.P.A. 4808 of 2025 Mastafapur Gramyudyog Samiti & Anr.

Versus

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Mr. Amitabha Ghosh ...for the petitioner.

Mr. Anjan Bhattacharya ...for the Prodhan.

Mr. K. J. Yusuf, AGP Mr. Parikshit Goswami ...for the state.

Petitioner is aggrieved by the fact that in spite of informing the police authorities regarding the private respondents flexing their muscles and snatching away the products particularly of the water body where the petitioner had been carrying on their business activities in accordance with law - the police authorities did not respond to the same and take steps.

State has submitted a report. Report reflects that State has registered Gangarampur PS Case No. 76/25 dated 10.02.2025. Investigation of the case is in progress. In course of investigation, three accused persons have been arrested. The police authorities are directed to assess regarding

the complicity of the private respondents during the course of investigation.

Learned advocate appearing for the respondent nos. 8 & 9 submits that he has only called a fresh tender which has never been the subject matter of challenge in any court of law and as such has been unnecessarily implicated in connection with this case.

In view of the police authorities having already registered case and some steps have been taken, I direct that the police authorities would put in efforts, so that effective steps are taken to arrive at a logical conclusion for assessing whether the petitioner has suffered a financial loss. Police authorities would also ensure that there is no breach of the peace and/or tranquility and/or any untoward incident further resulting, having considered that the petitioner and some of the private respondents are at loggerhead.

With the aforesaid observations WPA 4808 of 2025 is disposed of.

Report so submitted be kept with the record.

A copy of the report be handed over to the learned advocate for the petitioner.

All parties shall act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court.

(Tirthankar Ghosh, J.)
