The petitioners (in CWP No. 15888 of 1991) have invoked the provisions of Articles 226/227 of the Constitution of India for quashing the order dated 18.7.1990 (Annexure P-4) passed by the Collector, Rupnagar, whereby the petitioners were ordered to be ejected from the land in dispute and the order dated 28.08.1991 (Annexure P-5) passed by the Director Rural Development and Gram Panchayat, exercising the powers of the Commissioner, whereby the appeal preferred by the petitioners against the above said order, was rejected. A hierarchy of Courts has been provided and remedy could be availed against the orders passed by the Collector or the Commissioner by approaching the said Courts. The jurisdiction of the Civil Court is also barred in this regard. In any case, having heard counsel for the parties at length and examined the orders Annexures P-4 and P-5, no illegality has been found therein, which may warrant interference by this Court in exercise of its writ jurisdiction. Resultantly, Civil Writ Petition No. 15888 of 1991 and COCP No. 772 of 2010 are dismissed. (A.N. JINDAL) JUDGE May 30, 2011 ajp
