Ayub Khan S/O Gani Khan Pathan And Ors. vs Mehtabkhan S/O Hayat Khan Pathan ... on 8 April, 2004
Having considered the Division Bench judgment in Raghunath's case and Genu Laxman Shinde's case, I am of the view that the Tribunal has jurisdiction to review its order under section 322 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code. Having arrived at this conclusion, in my judgment, the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal was justified in reviewing its order. The Tribunal on noticing that the revision was dismissed when the revision petitioner had died and his heirs were not brought on record. The record produced along with this petition shows that the Revision Application was, in fact, filed through the power of attorney of Mehtab Khan s/o Hayat Khan. The fact of death of Mehtab Khan s/o Hayat Khan was not brought to the notice of the Tribunal. As a matter of fact, the advocate who appeared for revision petitioner through the power of attorney filed an application to hear the revision on merit. This aspect was considered by the Tribunal and. accordingly, the review was allowed. Hence, there was sufficient ground to review the judgment and order. I therefore find no jurisdictional error has been committed by the Tribunal in allowing Revision Application.
