Respondents. ----------- 02- 5.2.2009 Heard Mr. Anant Kumar Pandey for the petitioners, and Mr. Mrityunjay Kumar, learned assistant counsel to Standing Counsel No.1 (Ceiling). It arises out of proceedings under section 16(3) of the Bihar Land Reforms (Fixation of Ceiling Area and Acquisition of Surplus Land) Act 1961 (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Act’). The petitioners are pre-emptors. This writ petition is directed against the order dated 30.10.2006 (Annexure-8), passed by the learned Additional Member, Board of Revenue, 2 Bihar, in Revision Case No.212 of 2005 (Ran Vijay Singh and others Vs. Tileshwari Devi), whereby the revision application in terms of Section 32 of the Act has been rejected on the ground that the vended plot is not agricultural land, and the purchaser has his house on the boundary of the same. In other words, she is an adjoining raiyat of the land in question. In that view of the matter, the impugned order cannot be faulted. The writ petition is dismissed. (S K Katriar, J.) S.K.Pathak/
