Brahma Nand Petitioner through Mr. P.K.Gupta, Advocate Versus State of Punjab & Ors. Respondents through Mr. A.S.Grewal, Addl.AG, Punjab. Mr. G.S.Jaswal, Advocate, for respondents No. 3 and 4. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL] On the oral prayer made by learned counsel for the petitioner, [i] Smt. Santosh Kumari Sharma [wife]; [ii] Jatinder Kumar Sharma [son]; [iii] sanjiv Kumar Sharma [son] and [iv] Rajiv Kumar Sharma [son] are ordered to be impleaded, subject to all just exceptions, as legal representatives of the petitioner who is said to have passed away during the pendency of this writ petition, which is directed against the interim order dated 19.03.2008 [Annexure P-7] passed by the Assistant Collector 1st Grade, Garhshankar. It is not in dispute that the mutation proceedings are still pending before the Assistant Collector 1st Grade. This Court had called upon the respondents primarily “to explore the possibility of settlement before the Lok Adalat between the petitioner and respondents No. 3 and 4 as they are all brothers”. Learned counsel for respondents No. 3 and 4 states that there already exists a 'family settlement' between the parties and beyond that the respondents are not willing to compromise the matter. In this view of the matter when there is no further possibility of any amicable settlement, the writ petition is dismissed with liberty to the petitioners to raise all the issues before the Assistant Collector 1st Grade, Garhshankar who shall consider and dispose of the same in accordance with law. Disposed of. Dasti. December 06, 2010. ( SURYA KANT ) dinesh JUDGE
