Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:30108-DB Court No. - 29 Case :- WRIT - C No. - 6288 of 2025 Petitioner :- Sharavan Kumar Sharma Respondent :- State Of U.P. And 7 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Shashi Kant Shukla Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Ashwani Kumar Mishra,J. Hon'ble Donadi Ramesh,J. There appears to be a dispute of ownership between petitioner and private respondents, which is engaging the attention of this Court. An order of status quo passed by this Court is in operation. Grievance of the petitioner is that private respondents have removed earth by digging the plot to an extent of more than 10 feet without any mining permit or approval of the district authorities.
Learned counsel for the petitioner states that grievance raised in the present writ petition is confined to the removal of earth from the plot without obtaining necessary mining permit or payment of royalty to district authorities. Learned Standing Counsel states that such grievance of the petitioner shall be got examined by the respondent no.2, in accordance with law. Since the issue of ownership is engaging attention of this Court, we refrain from making any observation with regard to rights of the parties over the land in question. However, if there is an unauthorized removal of earth from the plot in question for which various photographs are annexed, we deem it appropriate to permit the petitioner to approach the second respondent, who shall get the facts verified and appropriate action, as may be warranted in law, would be taken after notice to the private respondents. Such action would be taken preferably within a period of three months from the date of presentation of a certified copy of this order. In view of the observations/directions made above, this writ petition stands
disposed of.
