Holding
The writ petition was dismissed as the petitioners' grievance had already been redressed by payment of compensation.
Summary
The petitioners, sons of the late Chandrika Prasad and Prasuram Prasad, filed a writ petition against the State of Bihar, Bihar Rajya Pool Nirman Nigam Ltd, the Collector of Siwan, the Land Acquisition Officer, and the Senior Project Engineer, seeking relief presumably related to land acquisition compensation. The petitioners' counsel submitted that the compensation had already been paid and that their grievance was fully redressed. The respondents' counsel appeared but no further argument was recorded. The court, after hearing the parties, accepted the submission that the matter was settled. Consequently, the writ petition was consigned, effectively dismissing it. The order was delivered by Justice Purnendu Singh on 13‑01‑2026.
