CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH

Present:     Mr.Rahul Chhatwal, Advocate for the petitioner

                            .....

Jasbir Singh, J.(Oral)

This writ petition has been filed with a prayer that directions be

issued to the respondents to rehabilitate the residents of Kapoor Basti in

Faridkot, who are going to be ousted from the land, owned by the market

committee, Faridkot.

It is an admitted fact that the residents of the petitioner society

are sitting unauthorizedly over the land in dispute. It is their case that they

have constructed residential houses over the property, in dispute and are in

adverse possession for more than 30 years. There is nothing on record to

prove above said contention. Otherwise also, such like matters cannot be

disposed of in a writ petition. The petitioner, if so advised, may file a suit to

settle its rights over the property, in dispute. No case is made out for

issuance of any directions, as prayed for.

Disposed of.
