ANIL KUMAR Vs. STATE OF U P

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Heard Sri Shashi Nandan, learned senior counsel assisted by Sri S.R. Kushwaha, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the State and its authorities respondents. Petitioner is Lekhpal, posted at Galand Tehsil Ghoulana, District Panchsheel Nagar (Hapur). He has been suspended through order dated 16.6.2012 which is challenged through this writ petition and is contained in Annexure 1 to the writ petition. The allegation against the petitioner is that he gave false report so that names of private person could be entered as Bhoomidhar over gaon sabha land which consisted of pond grave yard etc. and that he filed report of possession on the basis of alleged allotment of 1989 after 22 years even though the name of the alleged allottees was not recorded in the revenue record.

(2.) There is absolutely nothing wrong in the impugned suspension order.

(3.) However, the documents annexed alongwith the writ petition disclose a horrible state of affairs and confirm the view of this Court taken in several cases that Gaon Sabha/State property particularly in districts Gautam Budh Naga, Ghaziabad and Meerut is being looted with active assistance of revenue officers on large scale. In this regard reference may be made to a judgment given by me Dina Nath v. State of U.P., 2009 9 ADJ 735, relevant paragraph of the said authority are quoted below:
