Ram Lakhan Singh And Ors vs The State Of Uttar Pradesh on 6 May, 1977
6. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that in
view of the law laid down by Allahabad High Court in the case
of Ram Singh & others Vs State of Uttar Pradesh & others,
reported in 1987 R.D. page 203, the impugned order, so far
as it imposes damage/penalty upon petitioners, despite the
categorical stand taken by them that they were not in
possession over the land in question, cannot be sustained.
Learned counsel for the petitioners has made a statement at
bar that the petitioners are not in possession over the land in
dispute. Thus, learned counsel for the petitioners confines his
challenge to that portion of the impugned order, whereby
damage has been imposed upon the petitioners.
