Petitioner: ALAM and others: VS Respondent: MEMBER (CONSOLIDATION), BOARD OF REVENUE, PUNJAB and others
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Muhammad Afzal Zullah, Dr. Javed Iqbal Title:ALAM and others: vs MEMBER (CONSOLIDATION), BOARD OF REVENUE,
PUNJAB and others Case No.: Civil Petition for Leave to Appeal No, 748 of 1982 Date of Judgment:1988-08-06 Reported As: 1989 SCMR 319 Result: Petition dismissed Judgment ORDER ' JAVID IQBAL, J.-- This petition is directed against the order of the Lahore High Court, Lahore, dated 15th June, 1982 whereby the writ petition of the petitioners was dismissed. The position in this case is that in a consolidation matter the Member, Board of Revenue made certain adjustments in the Khatas of the parties with mutual agreement of both the sides. However, when the order of the Member, Board of Revenue was challenged before the Lahore High Court, Lahore, it was pleaded that the petitioners had not given their consent and in support of this plea the petitioners submitted their affidavits. The learned Judge dismissed the writ petition of the petitioners for the reason that the affidavits submitted by the petitioners when placed alongwith the order passed by the Member, Board of Revenue could not be given greater weight than the judicial order passed by the Board of Revenue. After hearing learned counsel we do not find any fault with the conclusion arrived at by the High Court. In that view of the matter there is no substance in this petition which is accordingly dismissed.
