1. In this writ petition, the grievance of the petitioner is that though the order has been passed by L.R.D.C. in favour of the petitioner but the C.O. is not complying the said order of the mutation.
2. The petitioner has thus approached this Court praying for a direction upon the Circle Officer to execute the order passed by the L.R.D.C.
3. This Court is not an Executing Court. If the petitioner has got any grievance against the Revenue Officials, he should make a complain before the Deputy Commissioner who will listen to the same and pass an appropriate order.
4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that as the representation filed by the petitioner is already pending before the respondents, suffice it would be, it a direction is given to the respondents to consider the claim to the petitioner.
5. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the State submits that if the petitioners file a detailed representation before the respondent no. 4 - the Circle Officer, Chandrapura, District - Bokaro, their case will be considered.
6. Considering the submission of the parties, I direct the petitioners to file a fresh representation before the respondent no. 4 - the Circle Officer, Chandrapura, District - Bokaro, who will consider the case of the petitioner.
7. The representation should be filed within four weeks and the decision should be taken within twelve weeks thereafter.
8. If it is found that the petitioner is entitled for any relief the same should be extended to the petitioner. If the claim of the petitioner is rejected for any reasons whatsoever, the reasons should be communicated to the petitioner within a period of four weeks thereafter.
9. With the aforesaid observation and direction, this writ petition is
disposed of.
