Civil Writ Petition No.19608 of 2010 Perusal of the paper book indicates that above said writ petition was disposed of on an assurance given by the State authorities that houses of the petitioners therein were being adjusted except tube-well room. It is not in dispute that those houses were adjusted thereafter and the owners, whose houses were adjusted, were the co-sharers with some of the petitioners. It is also an admitted fact that award had already been passed. The petitioners kept on waiting and knocked doors of this Court at a belated stage as such, no relief can be granted to them.
