JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is an application by Chhotu and 17 others under Art. 226 of the Constitution.

(2.) THE applicant are tenants of a khalsa village in which settlement operations were going on, and have now been completed. THEy have come up to this Court and their complaint is that rent rates, which had been fixed, are very high, and this court should quash them on the ground that the provisions of law with respect to settlement operations have not been complied with. THEy have also attacked realisation of patwar and malbacesses from them. THEy have further alleged that a batta of one anna per rupee is charged from them when they go to pay the rent mentioned in the parchas on account of difference between Jharshai coin and Indian coin, and that this is an illegal eviction because the settlement was made in 1953 according to standard Indian coin.
