Surya Kant, J. (Oral)
The petitioners are residents of village Ukhalchana, Tehsil Jhajjar, District Rohtak. They claim themselves to be living Below the Poverty Line (BPL) to whom the Gram Panchayat decided to allot plots of 100 square yards. Their grievance is that though they are fully eligible for such allotment under the 'Mahatma Gandhi Gramin Basti Yojna' which the State Government decided to implement vide Policy memo dated 01.02.2008 but the respondents are not considering their claim for undisclosed reasons. It appears from the averments that an exercise to identify the eligible persons was undertaken and the petitioners were found eligible but the follow up action by the Deputy Commissioner, Jhajjar or Gram Panchayat of their village is still awaited.
Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and taking into consideration the fact that the petitioners have placed reliance on a Government Policy which, according to
