IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.20269 of 2009 (O&M) DATE OF DECISION :23rd December,2009 Rajinder Singh and another ...Petitioners Vs. Director Land Records, Punjab and others …Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE PERMOD KOHLI Present : Mr.Harsh Bunger, Advocate for the petitioners PERMOD KOHLI,J.(Oral) The petitioner is aggrieved by order dated 28.09.2006 (Annexure P-7) passed by Director, Land Records, Jalandhar whereby the petition under Section 42 of the East Punjab Holdings (Consolidation & Prevention of Fragmentation) Act, has been dismissed. I have perused the impugned order. The Director, Land Records, Jalandhar has not decided the petition on merits in view of the pendency of partition proceedings before the Revenue department. This position is not disputed. The proceedings for partition are pending before Revenue department. Two authorities cannot simultaneously adjudicate upon the rights of parties relating to the land. I do not find any infirmity in the impugned order. The petition is dismissed. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to pursue proceedings before the Revenue Authorities.
