Holding
The petition was dismissed because the peremptory order issued to the respondent was not complied with.
Summary
The petitioners, sons of the late Narayan Paswan, filed a writ petition seeking to quash a Bihar Land Tribunal order dated 28‑03‑2018 that had annulled a Collector’s order granting them land under a Basgit Parcha. They also requested a direction restraining the respondents from disturbing their possession of the land. The High Court issued a notice to respondent No. 5 on 02‑12‑2025. The notice was a peremptory order, and the respondent failed to comply, leading the Court to dismiss the petition on 23‑12‑2025. Consequently, the reliefs sought by the petitioners were denied.
Issues considered
- Whether the order of the Bihar Land Tribunal dated 28‑03‑2018 should be quashed
- Whether the Collector’s order granting land under Basgit Parcha is valid
- Whether the respondents can be restrained from disturbing the petitioners’ possession
