Mr. Karnab Biswas, Adv.

...For the Respondent Nos.7 & 9 1.

Affidavit-of-service filed on behalf of the petitioner is taken on record.

2.

Learned advocate representing the petitioner submits that daughter of the petitioner at present is running a coaching centre at the premises in question.

3.

However, private respondents are creating obstruction in running such centre which prompted the petitioner to approach this Court with the present writ petition seeking direction upon the concerned police authority which would enable petitioner's daughter to run the centre.

4.

State respondents are represented by Mr. Suryaneel Das, learned Additional Government Pleader and respondent nos.7 & 9 are represented by learned advocates.

5.

It is submitted on behalf of the respondent nos.7 & 9 that dispute pertains to land and in connection with seeking correction of LR record of rights an original application being OA 2651 of 2023 (LRTT) was filed

[2] before the West Bengal Land Reforms and Tenancy Tribunal.

6.

Said original application was disposed of by the Tribunal on 16th July, 2025 thereby directing the BL & LRO, Bhangar-I to consider and dispose of the representation made for correction of LR record of rights of the said land in question.

7.

It is also submitted that till date issue is not decided by the concerned BL & LRO relating to correction of record of rights.

8.

Considering the submissions made on behalf of the parties, it appears that dispute subsists between the petitioner and respondent nos.7 & 9 relating to land in question requiring the petitioner to approach appropriate forum.

9.

Police authority is not the appropriate authority to decide inter se right of the parties over the land in question.

10. However, concerned police authorities are directed to maintain peace and tranquility at the locale and to see that no untoward incident takes place.

11. Writ petition stands disposed of.

12. Urgent photostat certified copy of the order, if applied for, be given to the parties, upon usual undertakings. (SAUGATA BHATTACHARYYA, J.)
