SUKHVEER SINGH Vs. DY DIRECTOR OF CONSOLIDATION GHAZIABAD

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS petition has been preferred questioning of the order dated 27.1.2009 passed by the Deputy Director of Consolidation, Ghaziabad whereby he has set aside the order of the Settlement Officer Consolidation and has restored the order of the Consolidation Officer under which the petitioner was found to be entitled to retain only 1/45 share of the holding in dispute.

(2.) I have heard Shri Subhas Chandra Yadav holding brief of Malti Sharma and Sri A. K. Sachan, learned counsel for the contesting respondent Nos. 3, 4 and 5.

(3.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioner contends that as a matter of fact no such partition had taken place and neither the petitioner had entered into any compromise nor had he put his thumb impression on the memo. Sri P. K. Gupta, advocate had no authority to verify the said compromise on his behalf. It is further submitted that the name of the petitioner continued to be recorded in C. H. Form 23. The order passed by the Consolidation Officer never saw the light of the day by way of any endorsement on any revenue records. In view of this the petitioner, for this entire long period, never came to know about the said compromise, which was entirely forged and fabricated.
