ORDER
This is a revision petition filed against the order dated 28‑5‑1985 of the learned Additional Commissioner, Hyderabad whereby he rejected the appeal of petitioner in respect of Serial Nos.625, 626 area 32‑00 Acres in Deh Bhando Taluka Badin.
2. I have heard the parties and seen the record. The land was granted to the petitioner as a Kohat settler and has been with him since 1962, for more than 20 years. The copies of Khasra Girdawari have been produced by the petitioner showing him in possession of the land. It was not legal to cancel this grant when he had made full payment and was enjoying its possession as owner.
3. This revision petition is accepted and the grant of the petitioner is restored.
A.A. Revision accepted.
