PARAS Vs. THE REQUISITIONING AUTHORITY AND ANOTHER

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS petition is directed against the order dated 17 -10 -1964 passed by the Requisitioning Authority, Tahsil Kairana, purporting to requisition Under Section 3 of the UP Rural Development (Requisitioning of Land) Act, 1948 about 8 Bighas of land for constructing a drain.

(2.) THE petition was admitted on 16 -9 -1965 and on the same day an ad interim order was passed restraining the opposite parties from digging the nala in the plots.

(3.) AS this petition has been pending since the year 1965 and the stay order has been granted against the opposite parties, it is inconceivable that they had no information about the pendency of this writ petition. In the circumstances I refuse to grant any further time to the opposite parties to file the counter -affidavit.
