3. The defendant pleaded, contrary to the terms of the document executed by him in favour of the plaintiff, that he was an occupancy raiyat and was, not liable to be ejected. He alleged that he was at the date of the execution of the document, a settled raiyat of the village holding other lands, and that as he became a tenant of the disputed land the moment the deed was executed and he entered into possession thereunder, he forthwith acquired the status of an occupancy raiyat in respect of the land in suit. Mr. Justice Newbould has accepted this contention and has dismissed the claim for ejectment.
