Heard Mr Mrigendra Kumar for the appellant and learned Assistant counsel to G.P.19 for respondent nos. 1 to 5. This appeal has been filed by the appellant under Clause 10 of the Letters Patent of the High Court of Judicature at Patna, and raises a grievance with respect to the order dated 18.2.2010, whereby C.W.J.C.No. 2783 of 2010 has been dismissed, and the 2 order rejecting his claim of being share and cropper of the land in question by the Deputy Collector, Land Reforms, Forbesganj, Araria has been upheld. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the parties. The writ petitioner filed an application bearing Bataidari Case no. 60/97-98 under section 48(E) of the B.T.Act (hereinafter referred to as the Act) before the learned Land Reforms Deputy Collector, Forbesganj, Araria to direct the private respondents to share crops with him. The application was rejected by the learned Deputy Collector, Land Reforms by his order dated 24.12.2009 on the ground of absence of any agreement between the petitioner and the private respondents. The learned Deputy Collector, Land Reforms further held that the petitioner has taken plea of sharing crops, after he failed to purchase the land in question as an after thought. Learned Single judge found that DCLR has rightly rejected the application of petitioner. We are entirely agree with the order of the learned Single judge and we do not find any merit in the appeal, which is dismissed. (S.K.Katriar,J). Shashi (S.P.Singh,J).
