- (1.) DELAY condoned.
(2.) APPLICATION for personal hearing is rejected. We have perused the review petition and the connected record. The casual and irresponsible manner in which the review petition has been filed is self-evident. The grounds in the review petition and in the special leave petition are verbatim the same even to the extent of the mistakes. In the grounds of special leave petition, there are two paragraphs marked 'K' and in the grounds of the review petition also, there are two paragraphs marked 'K'! The following tabular statement demonstrates what we have said above: JUDGEMENT_441_3_1998Html1.htm Even in the other paragraphs of the review petition, there is only verbatim reproduction of the corresponding paragraphs from the special leave petition. (A) Because the High Court and the Dy. Director of Consolidation lost sight of the glaring position of law that the order passed by the Settlement Officer, Consolidation on 2-12-1995, after making spot inspection and appreciation of all the documents and circumstances and facts of the case attained finality under Section 21 (2) of the C.H. Act, the said Settlement Officer, Consolidation was the Court of first appeal and as such its decision was final in so far as the facts of the case were concerned.(A) Because the High Court and the Dy.

Act, the said Settlement Officer, Consolidation was the Court of first appeal and as such its decision was final in so far as the facts of the case were concerned. (B) Because the High Court and Dy. Director of Consolidation failed to appreciate that the powers of the revisional Court under Section 48 of the C.H. Act are very limited, restricted and are not the unfettered powers to upset the orders of the Settlement Officer on the questions of fact, which order has attained finality.(B) Because the High Court and Dy. Director of Consolidation failed to appreciate that the powers of the revisional Court under Section 48 of the C.H.

Director of Consolidation has erred gravely in not keeping in mind the provision of Section 19 (f) of the U.P.C.H. Act which makes it necessary for the allotment of the same chak to the tenure-holder wherein his own source of irrigation is installed.(C) Because the Dy. Director of Consolidation has erred gravely in not keeping in mind the provision of Section 19 (f) of the U.P.C.H.

(I) Because as a result of proceedings under the said C.H. Act, the areas of lands belonging to the present petitioners have been unconsolidated and scattered, and the very spirit for initiating the consolidation of holdings proceedings have been thrown to winds. The present petitioner has been allocated chaks by the Dy. Director of Consolidation at far away from the other chaks. E.G. the chak No. 98 is far away from the abadi of the petitioner, not only this, it has no source of irrigation besides the land thereof, is of inferior quality, and the Dy. Director of Consolidation has not adverted himself to this glaring fact.(I) Because as a result of proceedings under the said C.H.

Director of Consolidation dated 30-8-1996 are liable to be set aside.
(3.) WE view this with concern and deprecate the casual and irresponsible manner of filing such review petitions which unnecessarily waste the time of the Court. No existence of an error, much less error apparent on the face of the order, while dismissing the SLP, has even been alleged, let alone demonstrated in the review petition. The filing of the review petition is an abuse of the process of this Court. The review petition is, therefore, dismissed with Rs. 5,000.00 as costs, which amount shall be recovered under Rules. Petition dismissed.;
