Case No. 1 of 2016 – 17, the Circle Officer, Sadar Circle, Chaibasa has chosen to evict the petitioner within 15 days without any proceeding in the eye of law. 2. The impugned Notice of eviction has been issued purportedly on account of cancellation of Jamabandi pertaining to Plot No. 90, Khata No. 303 under Chaibasa Municipal Ward No. 5, Chaibasa by an order dated 07.08.2012, passed by the Deputy Commissioner, Chaibasa which is under Appeal before the Divisional Commissioner, Kolhan. 3.

In the mean time, status quo as on today be maintained”. 3. Counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the respondents on 17.9.2016 with copy to the other side. It is not in dispute now that the proceedings under Bihar Public Land Encroachment Act, 1956 have not been initiated for removal of any alleged encroachment on behalf of the petitioner though the Circle Officer, Sadar, Chaibasa has issued the impugned notice at Annexure-3 dated 20.8.2016 in Misc. Case No. 1 of 2016-17 after the jamabandi pertaining to plots in question were cancelled by the Deputy Commissioner, Chaibasa on 7.8.2012.

Annexure-A is the photo copy of the record of rights enclosed to the counter affidavit. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner however submits that in the absence of any proceedings under B.P.L.E. Act, 1956 (now Jharkhand) initiated for removal of the alleged encroachment, Respondents cannot evict the petitioner from the lands in question as it would be wholly impermissible in law. It is submitted that similar notices were assailed by the aggrieved persons in batch of writ petitions lead by W.P.C.

Act, 1956, on being fully satisfied thereafter would take steps in accordance with the Act of 1956 for removal of any encroachment by giving due notice to the individual petitioners in accordance with law. The present matter may therefore be disposed of on similar lines. 5. Learned counsel for the respondent- State also does not oppose such prayer in the light of the fact that no proceedings under B.P.L.E Act, 1956 has yet been initiated against the present petitioner. He submits that petitioner may also be directed to respond to the impugned notice where after if satisfied, the competent authority would take a decision whether to proceed in terms of the Act of 1956 on finding any encroachment on the lands in question. 6.
