In turn, the learned Chief Standing Counsel has contended before this Court that so far as the first prayer is concerned, a Special Investigation Team was constituted which following the procedure similar to the Central Bureau of Investigation, has completed the investigation and submitted its report to the higher authority on 22nd March, 2010, which will in turn send it to the State for taking appropriate decision for filing a report under Section 173 of the Code of Criminal Procedure in the matter.

Sd/- Regional Manager Uttar Pradesh State Industrial Development Corporation Limited, Lucknow." So far as the change of land use is concerned, we have called upon the learned counsel for the UPSIDC to show the minute as to whether any decision for change of land use has been taken or not. To that, our attention has been drawn to the note, quoted above, and the minutes of the meeting held on 09.06.2006, from which it is seen that the decision for change of the land use was taken by the year 2006 and the same has been challenged in the year 2010 without any pleading for challenging the same at such a belated stage. Therefore, we do not find any reason to further investigate or monitor the matter, as proposed by the petitioner. However, we accept the submission of the petitioner to the extent that there should be a period to be fixed by this Court for consideration of the report and completion of further course of action as early as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the date of communication of this order. So far as the prayer no.3 regarding placement of the tainted officers is concerned, the same will be governed by the judgment and order dated 24th February, 2010 passed by a Division Bench of this Court in Misc. Bench No. 1480 of 2010 ( Deepak Gidwani Vs. State of U.P. & Ors.), in which the judgment of three Judges' Bench of the Supreme Court reported in (2006) 6 SCC 614 [Rajiv Ranjan Singh 'Lalan' (VIII) & Anr. Vs. Union of India & Ors.] has been considered. Though, the petitioner has relied upon a decision reported in (2005) 8 SCC 202 [Centre for Public Interest Litigation & Anr. Vs. Union of India & Anr.], wherein the Supreme Court, while considering the appointment on the post of Chief Secretary of a State, observed that such type of appointment on sensitive post should not be given to a tainted person because it is a question of transfer, unlike the present one, and that too when the charge sheet was filed by the Criminal Bureau of Investigation. As such, this distinguishable feature cannot be ignored. With the above observations and order, we dispose of this writ petition, however, without imposing any cost.
