IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.12741 of 2011 Angrej Singh & another ...Petitioners Versus State of Punjab & others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RANJIT SINGH 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr.Simranjeet Singh, Advocate, for the petitioners. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioners have impugned the order of their ejectment passed by the Collector/DDPO, which has been upheld by the Commissioner. The respondent-Panchayat had moved an application under Section 7 of the Punjab Village Common Lands (Regulation) Act, 1961 for ejectment of the petitioners on the ground that they have forcibly occupied the same. The petitioners claimed title over the suit land on the basis of auction. As per the petitioners, this land was given to them in open auction. In support, they have placed on record a chit indicating auction. Except for this, the petitioners could not show any document to prove their title. This document was considered by the authorities and not relied upon on the ground that no description of the land is Civil Writ Petition No.12741 of 2011 : 2 : given in this chit. The very infirmity that will stare directly against the petitioners is the finding of the civil court. In fact, the petitioners had filed a civil suit for injunction on the ground that they are owner in possession. The suit was dismissed. The petitioners remained unsuccessful in appeal also. The petitioners allowed this judgment to acquire finality. In this background, I do not see any justification to interfere in the impugned orders passed by the authorities. The submission by the petitioners that the land would fall under the definition of shamlat and they are being in possession could not be dispossessed apparently was never raised before the authorities. Dismissed. July 21, 2011 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
