IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.17596 of 2010 AUSAF ALI CHHOTE S/O LATE AINUL HAQUE R/O VILLAGE LODIPUR, P.O & P.S. KHUSRUPUR DISTRICT PATNA…………PETITIONER Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 25.10.2010 This matter is remanded to the Circle Officer Harnaut, Nalanda to reconsider the case of the petitioner. The order as contained in Annexure-13 passed by memo No. 930 dated 26.07.2010 indicates that the petitioner’s application for mutation has been rejected, on ground that the petitioner did not produce copy of Register-II. The petitioner is claiming that his name should be mutated in place of his uncle as he is the sole legal heir of his uncle. The Circle Officer is required to check the revenue record to confirm whether the petitioner’s uncle finds place in the revenue record as well as Register-II. Thereafter a general notice ought to be issued and appropriate orders ought to be passed by the Circle Officer Harnaut, Nalanda. The procedure adopted by the Circle Officer is unsatisfactory. This matter is remanded to Circle Officer Harnaut, Nalanda 2 to consider the case of the petitioner for mutating the petitioners name in the revenue records in place of his uncle, within a period of six months on receipt of copy of this order.
