Opp. Parties Mr. A.P. Das, ASC

CORAM:

THE CHIEF JUSTICE JUSTICE R.K.PATTANAIK Order No.

ORDER

22.03.2022 06.

1. In the present case, learned counsel for the Opposite Parties Government informs the Court that the suit land already stands recorded in the name of the Government in the Record of Rights (ROR) which was published after the patta was issued in favour of the Petitioner.

2. The Petitioner's case for settling the land in his favour is based on the said patta. As rightly pointed out by the Government counsel, the Petitioner should have questioned the ROR either by filing a revision petition within one year or filing a suit within three years thereafter. Clearly, the Petitioner missed the bus on both counts. The Court is therefore not in a position to grant any of the relief as prayed for.

3. The writ petition is dismissed.
