IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 488 of 2009 (M/S) Vijendra Singh Rana. ………. Petitioner Versus State of Uttarakhand & others. ……… Respondents Mr. B.S. Negi, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. J.P. Joshi, Chief Standing Counsel for the respondents. Hon’ble V. K. Gupta, C.J. Both the courts below have rightly held against the petitioner because, undoubtedly, the petitioner was in unauthorized and illegal occupation of the Government land. The petitioner also could not establish or prove, with reference to any document or conveyance, that he was the owner of any piece of land by virtue of the land having been sold to him. The witness produced by the petitioner, DW2 Udmu, could not corroborate this fact as well. The petition is dismissed in limine. (V.K. Gupta, C.J.) 01.04.2009 G
