Respondent no.3 is permitted to be deleted. -------------------------------------------------------------- CORAM : MR.JUSTICE M.S.PARIKH Date of decision: 28/09/98 ORAL JUDGEMENT Leave to delete respondent no.3 Rule. Service of rule waived by Mr. K.T. Dave, Ld. AGP for the respondents nos. 1 and 2. 2. The grievance of the petitioner is that inspite of the fact that the revision application u/S. 211 of the Bombay Land Revenue Code is pending before the Special Secretary to the Government, the disputed land is sought to be used for the purpose of construction of building centre. It is the case of the petitioner that the site of the Gauchar land has been changed without hearing the petitioner or without following the procedure with regard to obtaining of the petitioner's consent in respect of change of such site. 3. Having heard the learned advocate for the petitioner as well as learned A.G.P. for the State, I am of the opinion that when the revision application in respect of the subject matter is pending, this petition may not be entertained at this stage, although necessary directions with regard to maintaining the status-quo need be issued. Following order is, therefore, passed :- The revision application which is pending before the Special Secretary of the Government in respect of the subject matter of this petition will be decided as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of 4 weeks from the date of receipt of writ of this direction. In the meantime, the respondents will see to the status-quo being maintained in respect of the land in question. Subject to this direction, rule is discharged. No order as to cost.
