It is the case of the petitioner that his request to provide a security guard on payment was examined by the District Special Branch Officer, Begusarai. 4. The said Officer reiterated vide memo no. 59 of 2022 dated 24.04.2022 that considering the threat perception to the life and property of the petitioner, he may be provided a security guard on payment of cost. The grievance of the petitioner is that he had conveyed his threat to all the concerned officials and in this regard even the President of the Refinery had written a letter to respondent no. The grievance of the petitioner is that he had conveyed his threat to all the concerned officials and in this regard even the President of the Refinery had written a letter to respondent no. 6 vide Annexure ‘6’ to the writ application but surprisingly the recommendation made in favour of the petitioner vide Annexure ‘6’ was not looked into and the petitioner has been communicated vide memo no.2062 dated 28.07.2022 Annexure ‘7’ to the writ application, which is being reproduced hereunder:- ^^lsok esa Jh pUnznhi dqekj] firk&Lo0 fl;kjke flag] lk0&yk[kks okMZ ua0-14] iks0&yk[kks Fkkuk&yk[kks vks0ih0] ftyk&csxwljkA izlax%& iqfyl mi&egkfujh{kd ¼lqj{kk½] fcgkj] iVuk dk;kZy; dk i=kad- fo0lq0l0dks0@2022@875 fnukad& 30-06-2022 fo"k;%& vaxj{kd izfrfu;qDr ugha djus ds laca/k esaA mi;ZqDr izlaxk/khu fo"k; ds laca/k esa lwfpr djuk gS fd x`g foHkkx dk ladYi la0& 3663 fnukad 05-02-2017 ds vuq:i fnukad& 30-06-2022 dks vij iqfyl egkfuns'kd ¼lqj{kk½] lg&v/;{k fo'ks"k lqj{kk lfefr egksn; fcgkj dh v/;{krk esa gqbZ cSBd esa fy, x;s fu.kZ; ds vuqlkj vkidks vaxj{kd miyC/k ugha djkus dk vkns'k izkIr gqvk gSA vr% lknj lwpukFkZ izsf"krA ifjpkjh izoj] iqfyl dsUnz] csxwljk;A^^ 5. It is, thus, the case of the petitioner that the Special Security Committee headed by the Additional Director General (Security) has rejected the request of the petitioner to provide a security guard without looking into the materials available on the record and the order has been passed in a mechanical manner without application of judicious mind. 6. Mr. Iqbal Asif Niazi, learned AC to GP-5 for the State has though opposed this writ application but he is unable to defend Annexure ‘7’ to the writ application as the fact is that Annexure ‘7’ does not contain any reason and nothing may be deciphered from the said communication. 7. To this Court, it appears that Special Security Committee has failed to appreciate that in India the role of government is that of the parent of the citizens and principle of parens patriae applies when it comes to protect and secure the life, liberty and property of the citizens of the country. The Committee had before it the recommendation of a local police officer who had investigated into the threat perception of the petitioner, there was no reason for the Committee and at least Annexure ‘7’ nowhere discloses any such reason for rejecting the request of the petitioner. The Committee had before it the recommendation of a local police officer who had investigated into the threat perception of the petitioner, there was no reason for the Committee and at least Annexure ‘7’ nowhere discloses any such reason for rejecting the request of the petitioner.
