In view of the order of remand passed by the learned Bihar Land Tribunal, Patna, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the impugned order dated 28.10.2013, as contained in Annexure-10 to this writ petition. Hence, the present writ petition is disposed of with a liberty to the petitioner as also the private respondents to raise all the issues of facts and law, which may be available to them with respect to lands in question, in the aforesaid pending Mutation Case No. 173 of 2001-2002 before the respondent Circle Officer, Narpatganj, but before passing any final order opportunity of hearing must be given to all concerned.

It goes without saying that the issues of facts and law raised on behalf of the parties shall be appropriately considered and decided by the Circle Officer, Narpatganj. The writ petition stands finally disposed of with the observations and directions made above.
