1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 3080/2008 (M/s. Abdul Husain Mulla Alabuxji, Nagpur vs. The State of Maharashtra and others.) ====================================== CORAM : B.P.Dhamadhikari, J. DATE : 21 st NOVEMBER, 2008 Heard Advocate Maheshsingh, for the petitioner, Smt. Bharti Dangre, Additional Government Pleader for Respondent Nos. 1 & 3. Though Advocate Shri Maheshsingh has got various grievances to make, I find that document of lease, if any, executed in favour of the present petitioner as per orders of Nazul Tahsildar on 11.5.1959 is not placed on record. The reliance is being placed on 7/12 Extract which do not reflect the title of the present petitioner as government licensee. However, learned Additional Government Pleader has pointed out that the matter is being considered by Respondent No.2 – Hon'ble Minister. This court has already on 14th July, 2008, granted status-quo, which continues to operate. Considering the argument of Advocate Maheshsingh that some stranger has approached the respondent No.2 in proceedings and that same are not maintainable under Section 258 of Maharashtra Land 2 Revenue Code, I am inclined to continue the stay order of status-quo till 28th February, 2009. All objections including the objection of locus of a stranger and maintainability of the proceedings before the Respondent No.2 are kept open for consideration by respondent No.2 The respondent No.1 shall provide necessary copies of the review application to the present petitioner in the meanwhile and respondent no.2 shall decide the matter finally by 28th February, 2009, after giving reasonable opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. Interim order granted by this Court on 14th July, 2008, shall continue to operate till final adjudication by Respondent No.2. In view of this order, no further orders are required to be passed in the writ petition. Writ Petition is accordingly disposed of. No order as to costs. JUDGE Rvjalit
