ORDER
15.03.2023 Mr. D. Das, learned senior counsel assisted by Mr. G. Khandelia, learned counsel for the petitioners; Mr. A. Bhattacharya, learned Standing Counsel, Revenue Department for the respondent no. 1; Mr. J. Handique, learned Junior Government Advocate, Assam for the respondent nos. 2 & 3; and Mr. D. Choudhury, learned counsel for the respondent no. 4 are present.
Mr. Choudhury, learned counsel has submitted that he has entered appearance for the respondent no. 4 today and he needs two weeks time to file counter affidavit on behalf of the respondent no. 4.
The petitioner has alleged unauthorized and illegal action on the part of the respondent no. 4 in blocking the entrance of the petitioners' Myadi Patta land, covered by Dag no. 19 [old]/134 & 138 [new], as a result of which the said plot of land of the petitioners have become landlocked. On the contrary, Mr. Choudhury, learned counsel for the respondent no. 4 has submitted that the plot of land belonging to the petitioners has not become landlocked.
To have a clear picture on the matter, Mr. Handique, learned Junior Government Advocate, Assam shall obtain a report from the respondent no. 3 as regards the existence of entry and exit for the petitioners to enter the plot of land covered by Dag no. 19 [old]/134 & 138 [new] and whether the land has become landlocked.
List the case on 29.03.2023.
