Writ petitioners have assailed the order dated 1.9.1997 of the Additional Director of Consolidation of Holdings, whereby in a Revision Petition filed by some of the private respondents, Khasra No.5892(new) (7266/1 old) has been ordered to be recorded in joint ownership and possession of the parties and hence subject to partition. 3.

Respondent No.1, i.e. Director, Consolidation of Holdings, has filed reply, in which it is stated that Khasra No.5893 (new), Khatauni No.820, was also required to be shown alongwith Khsara No.5892 (new). He has requested that the case may be ordered to be remanded to him for making necessary corrections and amendments in the order. 5. In view of the abovestated position, we allow this writ petition and set aside the impugned order and remand the case to the Director, Consolidation of Holdings, with a direction to decide the matter afresh, after hearing both the parties. 6. Writ petition stands disposed of. All the pending applications also stand disposed of. ( Surjit Singh ), J. April 12, 2007(sd) ( Sanjay Karol ), J.
