Petitioner: JALALUDDIN VS Respondent: PROVINCE OF PUNJAB and others
Court Name: Supreme Court of Pakistan Judge(s): Ghulam Mujaddid Mirza, Saad Saood Jan Title: JALALUDDIN vs PROVINCE OF PUNJAB and others Case No.: Civil Petition No, 266 of 1982 Date of Judgment:1988-07-20 Reported As: 1989 SCMR 280 Result: Petition dismissed
Judgment ORDER ' SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.--The petitioner was a Patwari. He prepared a false copy of the Khasra Girdawari and gave it to Abdul Ghaffar and some others who attempted to procure land in Cholistan on the basis of that copy. Departmental proceedings were held against him and as a result he was dismissed from service. His appeals before the Commissioner and the Service Tribunal remained unsuccessful. He now seeks leave to appeal from this Court. 2. I is not disputed before us that the petitioner had in fact prepared the false copy. His explanation is that the person who was recorded in the Khasra Girdawari as tenant had assured him that it was not he but those whom he mentioned in the copy were the actual tenants in the land in dispute. This explanation was rejected by the departmental authorities and the learned Tribunal and we find no reason to take a different view in the matter. The petition is dismissed.
