Mr. K.C. Tiwari, Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. (Oral) 1. Heard Mr. Milind Raj, Advocate for the petitioners and Mr. K.C. Tiwari, Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand. 2. The petitioners were given a land on lease by the erstwhile State of Uttar Pradesh under the Government Grants Act, 1895. There were certain conditions in the lease deed and one of the main conditions of the lease deed was that the land shall not be transferred to any other person. The petitioners have apparently violated the said condition of the lease deed because the names of tenure holder in the revenue record have been changed, and the petitioners have given the possession of the land to the private respondents. 3. Learned counsel appearing for the State has pointed out certain conditions of the lease deed and also pointed out certain law and stated that since there is violation of the lease conditions, the State has already proceeded in this matter and the land shall now vest with the State. 4. On this averment, no interference is called for by this Court. The petitioners are though at liberty to move any representation or appeal, which they deem proper, before the appropriate authority. 5. With the observations made above, writ petition is disposed of. 6. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 7.12.2011 Avneet
