IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.12301 of 2006 MOST.SAIL KUMARI & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- For the Petitioners :Mr. Kumar Uday Singh, Advocate For the State :Mrs. Kumari Amrita, S.C.1 (Ceiling) 08/ 24.9.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and counsel for the State, S.C.1 (Ceiling). 2. Petitioners are the wife and sons of Late Dadan Singh, who filed Revision Case No. 35 of 1998 before the Board of Revenue, Bihar, which was dismissed for default under orders dated 29.12.1998, as contained in Annexure-8 to this writ application. Petitioners as also Dadan Singh had no information about the order dated 29.12.1998, Annexure-8. Later, Dadan Singh left for his heavenly abode on 25.3.1999, but even after his death, petitioners had no knowledge about the disposal of the said revision case. Later, on 22.2.2006, petitioners learnt about the dismissal of the revision case, whereafter they approached this Court by filing the present writ application praying inter alia to set aside the order dated 29.12.1998 dismissing the revision case in default with direction to the Board of Revenue to hear Revision Case No. 35 of 1998 on merit. 3. From the averments made in the writ application, I am satisfied that the petitioners had no information about the filing of the revision case as also about its dismissal since 2 Dadan Singh alone was the petitioner in the said revision case. 4. As the Revision Case No. 35 of 1998 was not considered on merit, I set aside the order dated 29.12.1998, Annexure-8 and direct the Board of Revenue to consider the said revision case on merit. 5. Petitioners are directed to appear before the Board of Revenue along with a certified copy of this order on 20.10.2008, whereafter the Board of Revenue shall fix a date for hearing of the revision application and pass appropriate final orders in accordance with law. 6. This writ application is, accordingly, disposed of. Arjun/ (V.N. Sinha, J.)
