He has further urged that there is no reason assigned by the learned Single Judge for quashing and setting aside the impugned orders of the Collector and the Revenue Authority i.e. Chief Controlling Revenue Authority. Lastly he has urged that the matter is between the petitioner and the bank and, therefore, the petitioner could recover the amount from bank.

(3.) IN view of dismissal of main appeal, Civil Application No.12013 of 2010 stands also dismissed.
