IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11577 of 2009 SUNITA KUMARI@ NUTAN SINGH Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 03/ 14-09-2009 The petitioner is aggrieved by order dated 19.5.2009 passed by the Collector, Katihar in PPHT Rev.Case No.545 of 2009-10. The aforesaid revision was filed against the order dated 23.7.1986 passed in Basgit Purcha Case No.19/86-87. The Collector, Katihar, passed the impugned order on the very first page of the petition. The petitioner further submits that Basgit Purcha was issued in favour of opposite party without giving a notice. It appears that the application before the Collector was filed under Section 21 of the Bihar Privileged Person Homestead Tenancy Act. In the statutory application as such the Collector ought to have passed the order on a order sheet instead of passing order on the petition itself, the order passed under statutory provision is a quasi judicial act. As such the same should not have been passed on the petition itself. Though the Collector may have had valid reasons for rejecting the application. This Court for the present is not entering into the merit of the case in view of the legal proposition noted above. The order passed on the petition would not be a valid order in the eye of law and as such the matter is remanded to him for passing order in accordance with law. With the aforesaid observation this writ application is disposed of. Anilkrsinha (Samarendra Pratap Singh, J.)
