ORAL JUDGMENT (Per: HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE)
Date : 01-08-2023
1. The public interest litigation is filed for a direction to Patna High Court CWJC No.10665 of 2023 dt.01-08-2023
the respondent-authorities to conduct a spot verification and
construct a drain on soling road lying adjacent to Khata No.81, Plot
No.262, area 0.14 decimal situated at Mauza-Godiha, Gram
Panchayat-Matpa, Block-Kutumba, District-Aurangabad.
2. It is stated that respondent nos. 8 to 13 are flowing
waste water into the road, thus, causing nuisance to the villagers.
3. We are not convinced that a public interest litigation
would be maintainable on the grounds raised. The grievance is
personal and with respect to a particular land, pertaining to nuisance
created by draining waste water into the road in front of the said plot.
The nuisance is said to be created by respondent nos.8 to 13,
presumably adjacent plot owners, which grievance has to be taken up
before the appropriate forum.
4. The writ petition would stand dismissed, leaving
remedy to the petitioner to approach appropriate forum.
