If at all, there is any dispute with the manner in which land was sold the proper remedy would have been to file a suit which has already been done vide Title Suit No. 201 of 2009.
Having considered the aforesaid, the entire proceeding including the order dated 28.09.2010 passed by the Judicial Magistrate, 1st Class, Begusarai in Complaint Case No. 542C of 2010 is, hereby, set aside. The Application stands allowed.
