Chhotey Lall Modi Appellant
VERSUS
STATE OF JHARKHAND Respondents

JUDGEMENT

- (1.) THIS writ petition has been filed by the petitioner for quashing the order dated 31.10.2008 passed by the Deputy Commissioner, Deoghar in Misc. Case No. 10 of 2007 declaring that the portion of Plot No.647 upon which a Saheed Aashram situate is part and parcel of Jamabandi No. 519, by setting aside the order dated 24.12.2004.
(2.) ON 15.4.2009 when the writ petition was placed before the learned Single Judge, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that this is a Public Interest Litigation. On the submission of the learned counsel, this case has been placed before us. Admitted facts are that the order was passed by the Deputy Commissioner, Deoghar on 24.12.2004 setting aside the Jamabandi running in the name of respondent No.7. Since respondent No.7 was not a party to the proceeding in which the order was passed, he moved this Court by filing a writ petition being W.P.(C) No.6672 of 2005. Learned Single Judge quashed the said order dated 24.12.2004 holding that since said order was passed in absence of respondent No.7, the same was illegal and wholly without jurisdiction. However, learned Single Judge further held that any change made in the revenue register on the basis of order dated 24.12.2004 is bad in law and the entry in the revenue register, which was existing in the record before passing the said impugned order, was restored.
(3.) AGGRIEVED by the said order, State preferred L.P.A. which was dismissed. The present petitioner filed review petition before the Division Bench of this Court being Civil Review No.49 of 2008 on the ground that the petitioner was not a party in the L.P.A. Division Bench of this Court by order dated 9.9.2008 dismissed the review petition. However, the Court observed that petitioner will have ample opportunity to challenge the order, if the same is implemented.;
