Respondents. ----------- 02- 17.3.2009 None appears on behalf of the petitioner. Heard Mr. Bajrangi Lal, learned assistant counsel to Government Advocate No.8. 2. We have perused the materials on record and considered the submissions of the learned Government Counsel. It arises out of proceedings under section-48E of the Bihar Tenancy Act (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Act’). The present petitioner claims to be the 2 Bataidar. He had preferred application under Section-48E of the Act, which was registered as Case No.891 of 1994-95 (Ishwar Mandal Vs. Mahadeo Yadav), which was disposed of on the basis of a mutual compromise by order dated 25.1.1999 (Annexure-2), passed by respondent no.3. The petitioner preferred appeal which has been rejected by the impugned order dated 30.9.2004 (Annexure-3), passed by respondent no.2. The learned appellate authority has, inter alia, held that the appeal is barred by limitation, and the terms of compromise are just and fair and do not call for any interference. I, therefore, do not find any ground for interference with the impugned order. 3. The writ petition is dismissed. (S K Katriar, J.) S.K.Pathak/
