M.M. KUMAR, J.

The findings recorded by the Divisional Canal Officer
and the Superintending Canal Officer in categorical terms is that
watercourse ABC was running from the head of the outlet to the land
of the applicant-respondent No. 3 through the land of the appellant.
In the interest of better irrigation, the watercourse ABC has been
ordered to be restored in the old position in accordance with Section
30 FF (3) of the Northern India Canal and Drainage Act 8 of 1873
(Punjab Amendment Act 23 of 1965). We find no ground to entertain
the appeal. Accordingly the same is dismissed.
