Respondent 3rd Set. --------- 02- 27.1.2009 Heard Mr. Prabhat Kumar Singh for the petitioner, and Mr. Braj Kishore Prasad Sinha, learned Government Pleader No.3 for respondent nos.1 to 4. We have not felt the necessity of issuing notices to respondent nos. 5 to 12 in view of the nature of the order that we are going 2 to pass. It arises out of mutation proceedings and is with respect to R.S. Plot No.538, appertaining to Khata no.912, covering an area of 6 decimals, arising out of C.S. Khata No.106, C.S.

The petitioner filed an application for mutation of the aforesaid lands which was allowed by order dated 15.1.1981 (Annexure-3), passed by the learned Anchal Adhikari, Behia, in Jamabandi Correction Case No.14 of 1980-81 (Sheo Bachan Singh and others Vs. State of Bihar). Aggrieved by this order, certain public spirited persons preferred appeal which was allowed on 29.10.2002 (Annexure-7), passed by the learned Land Reforms Deputy Collector, Jagdishpur, Bhojpur, in Revenue Misc. Case No.7-A of 2002-03 (Arun Kumar Jayaswal Vs. Sheo Bachan Singh). The revision application has been rejected by the learned Collector of the district of Bhojpur by his order dated 29.8.2006 (Annexure-5), passed in Misc. Case No.72 of 2000-01 (Rajendra Pandey Vs. Sheo Bachan Singh and others), and impugned herein. 3 3. The respondents have placed on record their counter affidavit. 4. It appears to me on a perusal of the materials on record and consideration of the submissions of learned counsel for the parties that the plot of land in question accommodates the Durga Asthan in the area. The revisional authority as well as the appellate authority have concurrently found that it is Durga Asthan and the petitioner herein has forged documents to establish his claim. The impugned order cannot be faulted. 4. The writ petition is dismissed. (S K Katriar, J.) S.K.Pathak
