JUDGMENT
The petitioner has approached this Court
asserting that a suo motu proceedings, bearing
S.M.No.727 of 2021, has been initiated against
him by the 2nd respondent - Special Tahsildar
(Land Reforms); and seeks that the same be
directed to be disposed of within a time frame
to be fixed by this Court.
2. In response, the learned Senior
Government Pleader, Smt.Surya Binoy, submitted
that the afore mentioned suo motu proceedings
was initiated against the petitioner only
recently and therefore, that this writ petition
is premature.
3. Even though I find the afore submissions
of the learned Senior Government Pleader to be
valid, I am also aware that, as a rule, this
Court directs the competent authority to WP(C) NO. 26488 OF 2021
dispose of such proceedings within a period of
eighteen months. I, therefore, do not see why
the petitioner should not be given the said
benefit.
Resultantly, this writ petition is ordered,
directing the 2nd respondent to complete
proceedings in S.M.No.727 of 2021, after
following due procedure and after affording
necessary opportunity of being heard to the
petitioner - as also any other interested
person - as expeditiously as is possible, but
not later than eighteen months from the date of
receipt of a certified copy of this judgment.
