(2.) BRIEF allegations by the plaintiff were that the defendant Ram Chandra had no concern with the disputed land and that he had illegally occupied the disputed land since the year 1371 F. hence he was liable to ejectment and to pay damages. The defence in the suit was that the defendant Ram Chandra had acquired Sirdari right in the disputed land on the basis of adverse and continuous possession for more than statutory period and alternatively that the defendant was in possession over the disputed land with the consent of the tenure holder ; hence the suit was not maintainable.

(3.) NONE has appeared on behalf of the contesting opposite party.
