Holding
A writ petition for execution of a revenue order cannot be entertained where the U.P. Revenue Court Manual prescribes a specific implementation procedure.
Summary
Mulki Devi filed a writ petition in the Allahabad High Court seeking a mandamus directing the authorities to implement an order dated 09‑06‑2025 passed by the Sub‑Divisional Magistrate under Section 134 of the U.P. Revenue Code, 2006, and to consider her subsequent applications dated 13‑02‑2026 and 21‑05‑2026. The petitioner alleged that despite the final revenue order, the authorities had taken no steps for its execution. The Court examined the procedural provisions of the U.P. Revenue Court Manual, particularly Para 460, which prescribes a specific mechanism for the implementation of revenue orders. It held that a writ petition cannot be entertained for execution of a revenue order when a statutory procedure exists. Consequently, the petition was disposed of, with liberty granted to the petitioner to initiate the appropriate proceeding under the revenue code for execution of the order.
Issues considered
- Whether a writ petition seeking mandamus for implementation of an order passed under Section 134 of the U.P. Revenue Code, 2006 is maintainable when the Revenue Court Manual provides a specific procedure for execution.
