The Deputy Commissioner, Anantnag as well as Assistant Commissioner, Revenue Anantnag are hell bent to convert the public interest into their official interest and want to enclose the land of the petitioners Sumo Stand with the residence of Deputy Commissioner, Anantnag, which will be affecting the rights of the petitioners and will affect the livelihood of the petitioners association, its members, their families and public in general. The conversion of the Sumo stand into the residence of the Deputy Commissioner, Anantnag, or for any other purpose around the Sumo Taxi stand will jeopardize the fundamental rights of the petitioners and will cause irreparable loss to the public interest. 7. On notice respondents have filed objections, wherein it is stated that the Anantnag town has undergone massive expansion and at present Khanabal is located in a highly congested part of the town crisscrossed by National Highway and favour Khanabal Phalgam road. In fact, Khanabal is located on Jammu-Srinagar old National Highway, giving lonely access to Anantnag town and there is enormous flow of traffic on this road junction. Given the huge increase in vehicular population and day-to-day movement of general public including employees, traders, businessman, patients, students etc., the said Sumo Stand has emerged as a big impediment in the road communication. The Sumo Stand is located in highly secured area, where Headquarter of Section-I Rashtria Rifles, Dak Banglow Khanabal, Boys Degree College, District Police Lines and High Security residential quarters of senior officials including District Magistrate, Anantnag, DIG, SKR, SSP Anantnag, ADM’s etc., and protected political Leaders are situated. Due to the operation of the said Sumo Stand, the vehicles associated with the Stand have to cross over old National Highway, which leads to traffic Jams and long vehicular snarls causing huge inconvenience. It is stated that the Sumo Stand operators also park their vehicles on roadside, chocking the road for hours on daily basis. The Sumo Stand has presently become a persistent bottleneck and an eye-sore for the surrounding areas. It has deleterious effects on the smooth and hassle free flow of traffic in Anantnag Town and on KP Road especially during Amar Nath Yatra. 8.

He further submits that failure of the respondents to renew the running of Sumo Taxi Stand, Dak Banglow, Anantnag, has violated the rights of the petitioners association, guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India, as it effects the livelihood of the petitioners’ association and their families, therefore, violation of fundamental right becomes sine-qua-non for maintaining the writ petition for the relief claimed. 10.

He further submits that the security of the place cannot be compromised, therefore, the petitioners association have to shift to the identified place on Anantnag-Srinagar road about 200 meters away from the present location, which is being developed and readied to rehabilitate the Sumo drivers. It is submitted that the District Development commissioner, has sanctioned funds to the tune of Rs. 6.00 lacs for taking up works for developing the alternative stand, therefore, the respondents have already balanced the interest of the security and the interest of the livelihood of the petitioners association. 12.

The respondents are on record, submitting that the present location of Sumo Stand is not convenient, besides policy on account of security reasons. The specific stand taken by the respondents that the existence of the Sumo Stand at the present location is constant threat to Security establishments by militants and the location could be used by anti-national elements to disrupt Yatra and create law and order disturbances. The re-location of the location is also supported by the communication of SSP, Anantnag, vide his communication No. CS/13/2019/31222 dated 29.08.2019. The respondents are also submitted that the re-location does not violate the rights of the petitioners for running the Sumo Stand, as the alternate site has been already identified and provided to the petitioners, which is only convenient to the commuters as also for the operators of the Sumos and other private vehicles. The respondents have also provided the details of location allotted to the petitioners, which as stated in no way caused inconvenience to the general public and to the commuters. 13. Mr. B. A. Dar, learned Sr. AAG, submits that the policy of location/re-location of the Sumo Stand is domain of respondents. The respondents have also provided the details of location allotted to the petitioners, which as stated in no way caused inconvenience to the general public and to the commuters. 13. Mr. B. A. Dar, learned Sr. AAG, submits that the policy of location/re-location of the Sumo Stand is domain of respondents. In this regard, he has referred to and relief upon the Judgments of the Hon’ble Supreme Court delivered in the case of ‘Federation of Railway Officers Association & Others vs. Union of India’, reported in ‘ AIR 2003 SC 1344 ’, the Apex Court of the country observed that the wholesome rule in regard to judicial interference in an administrative decision is that if the Government takes into consideration all the relevant factors, eschews from considering irrelevant factors and acts reasonably within the parameters of the law, Courts would keep off the same, and in the case of ‘BALCO Employees Union (Regd.) vs. Union of India & Ors.’, reported in ‘MANU/SC/0779/2001’, wherein the Supreme Court held that it is evident that it is neither within the domain of the Court nor the scope of the judicial review to embark upon an enquiry as to whether a particular public policy is wise or whether better public policy can be evolved. Nor are our Courts inclined to strike down a policy at the behest of a petitioner merely because it has been urged that a different policy would have been fairer or wise or more scientific or more logical. 14. Admittedly, the matter has remained pending with the respondents 3 and 4, for grant or otherwise of the renewal, because of the interim order of stay. 15. The Court has to place the cause of justice by ensuring that the rights of the parties does not got defeated, but in the present case, the respondents while taking care of the Security of the Union Territory of J&K, and law and order problem have also to ensure re-location and rehabilitation of the petitioners association, therefore, there is no issue of defeating the cause of justice and rights of petitioners association. 16. 16.
