1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR. WRIT PETITION NO. 1189 OF 2007 (Sahadeo Kolbaji Mandavkar .v. Additional Commissioner and others) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's Orders and Registrar's orders. Shri S.D. Malke, Advocate for the petitioner. Smt. S.S. Wandile, AGP for the respondents. CORAM : R.V. MORE, J. 27TH FEBRUARY, 2008. Heard the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the respective parties. The petitioner applied for regularisation of his encroachment over the land belonging to the government. The Tahsildar of Umrer sent a proposal to the Sub Divisional Officer, Umrer for regularisation of petitioner's encroachment over the aforesaid land. The said proposal sent by the Tahsildar was rejected by the Sub Divisional Officer, Umrer on the ground that the land which is sought to be regularised comes under Zudpi-Jungle and has been reserved for specific public purpose. This order of Sub Divisional Officer was confirmed by the Additional Collector, Nagpur in an appeal. The petitioner's revision before the Additional 2 Commissioner challenging the aforesaid orders of Sub Divisional Officer and Additional Collector came to be rejected by the impugned order. Shri S.D. Malke, the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submitted that the plots adjacent to the land under his encroachment are already allotted to different persons. However, if those plots are allotted illegally, the petitioner cannot claim advantage thereof while seeking for regularisation of his encroachment. Be that as it may, the Additional Collector, Nagpur has already directed the Sub Divisional Officer, Umrer to inquire into the matter of allotment of the plots of P.C. No.48 of village Deni. The plot in respect of which regularisation of encroachment is sought also forms part of P.C.No.48. In that view of the matter, I find no justification to interfere in the impugned order while exercising jurisdiction under Article 226 and 227 of the Constitution of India. The petition is, therefore, dismissed in limine. JUDGE *rrg.
