He accepts the position that order dated 18.9.2008 in Share Cropping Case No. No.02 of 2005-06, Annexure-1 has been passed on the basis of voter list of 1987 and 2005 but the voter list of 1987 is not available and actually a mistake was committed while passing the aforesaid order dated 18.9.2008. He further stats that the said order is passed on the basis of the age assessed in the year 1987 on the basis of the age recorded in the voter list of 2005. Perusal of the order does not indicate the aforesaid fact situation and aforesaid contention of the Sub-Divisional Officer, Mohania is not made out from the impugned order dated 18.9.2008, which proceeds on the basis of the age recorded in the voter list of 1987 and 2005, as such, there is no difficulty in concluding that the order dated 18.9.2008, Annexure-1 proceeds on assumption, which is erroneous and is, accordingly, set aside with direction to the Sub- Divisional Officer, Mohania to pass fresh orders in accordance with law. 3. This writ application is, accordingly, disposed of. Rajesh/ (V.N.Sinha, J.)
