NANGA Vs. JHUNTYA

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is an application under sec. 10 (2) of the Rajasthan (Protection of Tenants) Ordinance, No. IX of 1949, against an order of the S. D. O. Amber who ordered re -instatement of the non -petitioner upon khasra number 247 area 2 bighas 10 biswas in village Sheshawas, Tehsil Amber.

(2.) IT is rather peculiar that both the parties presented applications under sec. 7 of the Ordinance for re -instatement of this very number each alleging dispossession from the land by the other. Both the applications were tried together by the S. D. O. The application of the petitioners Nanga &Nanu was rejected and that of Jhunta granted. Therefore, Nanga and Nanu have come up in revision against that order of the S. D. O.

(3.) THE point urged before me in revision by the petitioners is that the land formed part of a jagir holding and was held by the petitioners as their khatedari land. The non -petitioner had by collusion with the Patwari obtained a Khatedari parcha in his name for this land but the same had been cancelled on appeal. The non -petitioner Jhunta had no right to this land nor he was in cultivatory possession of it. The S. D. O. was, therefore, wrong in ordering re -instatement.
