(3.) The petitioner filed an objection along with delay condonation application, under Sec. 9 -A of the Act, for recording her name over the land purchased by her through sale deed dated 7.1.2013.

However, Consolidation Officer by order dated 1.2.2014 found that plot 230 was not subject -matter of civil suit nor it was attached. On these findings he condoned the delay and rejected objection of respondents -5 and 6.
