Instructions for action against encroachment on pasture land

Jodhpur

Rajasthan High Court has directed the district level public land protection cell to take legal action while disposing of the PIL filed for removal of encroachment on gair-mumkin pasture land in Kosana village of Pipad city.

The Division Bench of Justice Vijay Bishnoi & Justice Anoop Kumar Dhand after hearing the PIL filed by the petitioner Hariram, said that in the petition by Patrika Group’s editor in chief Gulab Kothari & Jagdish Prasad Meena’s case, guidelines were issued to remove the encroachment from pasture lands, Oran, Gochar, Johad, pond, river, river bed, public road, crematorium, graveyard. It was the responsibility of the state government to look after this. In a similar case last year, the Jaipur bench had directed the Chief Secretary to constitute a Public Land Protection Cell in each district. The main function of this cell, constituted under the chairmanship of District Collector, is to take appropriate steps after investigation on the complaint of removal of encroachment from the public land.
