LEARNED counsel appearing for the petitioners submitted that the Board of Revenue has seriously erred in reversing the judgment and decree passed by the RAA, affirming the judgment and decree passed by the SDO, Gulabpura. Learned counsel submitted that Board of Revenue has not considered the evidence on record in correct perspective. Learned counsel submitted that the findings recorded by the courts below issue wise after due consideration of the evidence on record has been reversed by the Board of Revenue by merely recording its conclusion without considering the evidence on record. Learned counsel submitted that the Board of Revenue has proceeded to set aside the order taking note of the temporary injunction granted by the court and the order appointing the Receiver of the land which is ex facie erroneous. Learned counsel submitted that the concurrent findings arrived at by the trial court and the first appellate court has been set aside by the Board of Revenue by passing a cryptic order and therefore, the same deserves to be set aside.;
