JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE present writ petition has been filed with a prayer to maintain the public park at Rajamal-ka-Talab. It is stated that in the Writ Petition No. 421/1983 directions were issued by this Court to maintain the said park measuring 320" x 120" in accordance with the Scheme of the respondents. Attention has been drawn towards the Notification No. D-18465/f-3 (b)/ (57)LSG, date 4th Octo- ber, 1960 by which open spaces reserved for parks, vehicle stand, public building and roads etc. at the time of approval of various schemes, have subsequently been allotted to certain persons were objected and directions were given that there should not be any irregular allotment and in future no scheme which has been approved by the Technical Department should be disturbed by the Municipalities, City Improvement Committees and Urban Improvement Board without the approval of the Government. A letter of the Collector dated 29. 4. 1982 has also been referred in order to show that there is a provision regarding entry of heavy vehicles and inspite of there being prohibitory order, the heavy vehicles are violating the Government orders by loading and unloading the goods on foot-paths. By another order dated 21. 9. 1982 issued by the Collector, the officials were directed to stop the illegal activities of the transporters.

(2.) I have heard the arguments of both the parties.

(3.) IT may also be observed that there are other parks within the limits of Municipal Corporation, Jaipur which are to be maintained by it. IT would not be necessary for the citizens to come by way of separate writ petitions claiming the relief for maintenance of public parks and the directions which have been given in the present writ petition shall be followed for other public parks which have been left in the scheme as public parks.
