SUGAN SINGH Appellant
V/S
STATE OF RAJASTHAN Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS purports to be a reference u/s. 232 of the Rajasthan Tenancy Act made by the Collector, Sikar.

(2.) THE facts are that Sugan Singh had moved an application before the Sub-Divisional Officer, Neem ka Thana for correcting the revenue record so as to incorporate his name as khatedar of the land in dispute which had been recorded as 'charagah' (Pasture land ). Exercising the powers of the Land Record Officer, the learned Sub Divisional Officer made an enquiry and allowed the application. THE people of the village concerned made a representation to Government in the Revenue Department and the view communicated to the learned Collector was that the order of the learned Sub Divisional Officer Was without jurisdiction. THE learned Collector has not hered the parties, but has merely communicated that view to this Board by an official letter which does not indicate that he at all applied his own mind to the matter.
