The Division Bench quoted from the aforesaid judgments to hold that village office and the suit land annexed to it had been continued to be joint family property till the date on which the village office was abolished and the land was annexed to it was resumed. Further, an 'interest' in the village office means that the member of the joint family even though he may belong to a junior branch, had a right to succeed to the office in the event none was available in the senior branch to succeed to the office. Therefore, in the said case it was held that the inferior village office which was granted to the great -: 78 :- grand father of the parties and the suit land which was annexed to the said office, on abolition of the village office and resumption of the suit land as a consequence of abolition of the village office, became available for regrant and the person officiating the said office became entitled to have the land regranted. Further, the Division Bench also cited that the definition of 'holder' means a person having an interest in the said office under an existing law relating to such office and the expression 'existing law relating to a village office' includes any enactment, ordinance, rule, bye-law, regulation, order, notification, firman, hukum, vat hukum, or any instrument or any custom or usage having the force of law relating to a village office which may be in force immediately before the appointed date. Therefore, the junior members of the family having an interest under the village office must be considered as holders of the village office and a regrant made in favour of a person does not take away the right of the other persons or junior members of the family to seek partition in the suit land as per their personal law.
