JUDGEMENT
RAN VIJAI SINGH, J. -
(1.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioners is permitted to implead
concerned gaon sabha as respondent no. 4 to the writ
petition and serve the copy of the writ petition to Sri Arun
Kumar Srivastava learned counsel for the concerned gaon
sabha during the course of the day.
(2.) HEARD Sri Rajeshwar Singh, learned counsel for the
petitioner, learned Standing Counsel appearing for the
State -respondents and Sri A.K. Srivastava, learned counsel
for the Gaon Sabha.
While assailing the impugned order dated 8.10.2012 passed
by Sub Divisional Officer, Bijnor in case no. 16/2010 -11
(Imrat Vs. State of U.P.) and order dated 29.11.2013 passed
by the Commissioner, Muradabad Division, Muradabad in
revision no. 72/2012 -13 (Raghuveer Singh Vs. Gaon Sabha
and Others), learned counsel for the petitioners contends
that the petitioners were declared bhumidhars of the land in
dispute vide judgment and decree dated 18.3.1967 in case
no. 33 filed under section 229 -B of the U.P. Zamindari
Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950 (in short, 'the Act')
and that order could not be recalled by the Sub Divisional
Officer in a suo motu proceeding taking shelter of the
judgment of this Court in Writ Petition No. 47176 (Dinanath
Vs. State of U.P.). In his submissions, in the aforesaid
judgment, there is no direction to set aside the decree
passed by the competent court in a regular proceeding and
that judgment only restricted to the fake entries in the
revenue records. In his further submissions, since the
petitioners' names were recorded on the basis of judgment
and decree dated 18.3.1967, therefore, this could not be set
aside in such manner. It is further contended that the
revisional court has also erred in dismissing the petitioners'
revision against the order dated 8.10.2012.
(3.) PRIMA facie, I find substance in the submissions of learned
counsel for the petitioners.
Matter requires scrutiny.
