Habib Khan & Anr.
Vs.
The State of W.B. & Ors.
Mr. Manabendranath Bandyopadhyay Mr. Saheb Sadhukhan …for the petitioners.
Mr. Madhu Jana Mr. Subhajit Das …for the State.
Affidavit of service filed by the petitioners is taken on record. The Panchayat, Zilla Parishad and the private respondent are not represented despite service. The petitioners allege that the private respondent is raising unauthorized construction without obtaining sanction from the concerned authority. They submitted a representation before the concerned authority in this regard through their learned advocate on 23rd October, 2025 which is yet to be considered. The petitioners seek consideration of the same. In view of the allegation raised by the petitioners, the Pradhan, Beldubi Gram Panchayat, being the 10th respondent herein, is directed to consider and dispose of the representation submitted by the petitioners dated 23rd October, 2025 within four weeks from the date of communication of this order upon affording reasonable opportunity of hearing to all concerned including the
2 petitioners and the private respondent, in accordance with law. The decision taken by the authority shall be communicated to the parties within a week thereof. In the event the construction raised by the private respondent is found to be illegal/unauthorized, the concerned authority shall take necessary steps in accordance with law. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. There shall, however, be no order as to costs. Since no affidavit is invited, the allegations contained in the writ petition are deemed not to have been admitted. Urgent certified website copy of this order, if applied for, be supplied to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities. (Suvra Ghosh, J.)
