JUSTICE ARUN DEV CHOUDHURY ORDER 28-09-2026 1. Heard Mr. S. Borthakur, learned Senior counsel assisted by Mr. S. Dey, learned counsel for the petitioners in WP(C) No. 3874/2025 & WP(C) No. 2355/2025 and Mr. M. Hussain, learned counsel for the petitioner in WP(C) No. 2169/2025. Also heard Mr. D. Saikia, learned Advocate General, Assam assisted by Mr. R. Borpujari, learned Page No.# 19/21 Standing counsel, Revenue Department for the respondents. 2. In WP(C) No. 3874/2025 & WP(C) No. 2355/2025, the petitioners approached this Court inter alia assailing Speaking Orders dated 21.04.2025, issued by the Circle Officer, Chapar Revenue Circle and Notice dated 12.06.2025, issued under the signature of the Additional District Commissioner (Revenue), Dhubri, by which the petitioners were proposed to be evicted from the land under their occupation. 3. The further challenge made is to the Minutes of the meeting of the Co-District Land Advisory Committee dated 26.3.2025 and 02.04.2025, so far it relates to the decision to allot land to the Assam Power Distribution Company Ltd (APDCL, in short) for a power project, on the ground that such land has already been allotted to the petitioners. 4. In WP(C) No. 2169/2025, it is projected that the petitioner is a landless and erosion affected person occupying a government khas land, measuring 1 Bigha, covered by Dag No. 13/70 and his application for settlement of the said land was pending consideration. However, he is sought to be evicted as the said land now is allotted in favour of the APDCL for the power project. 5. An interim order was passed by a Co-ordinate Bench in WP(C) No. 3874/2025, protecting the petitioners therein from eviction. 6. During the pendency of the proceedings, many other occupants of the government land which were allotted to those persons have vacated their land as the Government of Assam has already allocated 200 bighas of government land at Village- Chirakhowa PART -II under Athani Revenue Circle in the district of Dhubri. 7. The petitioners herein are also entitled for such benefits being similarly situated, however, they raised objection of their relocation over the aforesaid plot of land citing that said land is geographically inconvenient; situated in remote riverin area and not well developed. Page No.# 20/21 8. In the meantime, the foundation of the Mega Power Project was laid down and the construction work has already been started. Such construction also requires movement and installation of heavy machineries. The occupation of the petitioners is adjacent to construction presently carried out and the land under occupation of the petitioners shall also be required to facilitate such construction. The authorities now apprehend that due to such heavy construction activities, the lives of the petitioners and their family members may be jeopardized. 9. The Government of Assam in the special circumstances and an emergent need of the land under occupation of the petitioners, has come out with a proposal which is quoted hereinbelow: (i) The District Administration of Dhubri District along with the writ petitioners may jointly find out and inspect alternative plots of government land at the earliest preferably within a period of two weeks, which would be suitable for habitation of the writ petitioners to their satisfaction, whereupon they will be granted with settlement over such land as per the prevalent Land Policy of Assam; (ii) The writ petitioners will be suitably compensated by the State Government with appropriate rehabilitation grant in the form of compensation payable for acquiring periodic patta land; (iii) The State Government is agreeable to any form of reasonable and equitable relief that may be granted by this Court in favour of the writ petitioners on the condition of vacating the lands under their occupation. 10. 10. In the aforesaid backdrop, this Court is of the opinion that the matter is proceeding in the right earnest protecting the public interest involved in the construction of the mega power project which shall facilitate industrial and economic development of the State and at the same time, granting equitable relief to the petitioners. 11. The learned counsel for the petitioners, on instruction submits that the Page No.# 21/21 petitioners have agreed to such proposal. However, they contend that being the persons from lower economic strata, they may be granted an amount of Rs. 50,000/- (Rupees Fifty thousand) per house as relocation/construction cost of their new houses at the relocated place. 12. It is heartening to note that the learned Advocate General, Assam has also agreed to such proposal. 13. Taking note of the matter in its entirety, these writ petitions stand disposed of on the agreed terms as recorded hereinabove. The interim order passed earlier, if any, stands vacated. It is provided that as agreed, an amount of Rs. 50,000/-(Rupees Fifty thousand only) be provided to the petitioners for per house/per family, which are to be demolished. It is further provided that once the relocated land is handed over along with the amount so agreed, the petitioners shall vacate their premises within 15 days thereafter. On failure to do so, the authorities shall be at liberty to proceed with the eviction without any further notice. 14. While parting with the record, it is made clear that the present order is based on an agreed term and cannot be treated as a precedent for relocation/compensation in future cases.
