JUDGMENT<\/p>\n
M.L. Singhal, J. <\/p>\n
 1. This is a writ petition under Article 226\/227 of the Constitution of India for issuance of a writ of certiorari quashing the impugned order dated 18th December, 1998 (Annexure-1 to the writ petition), passed by Deputy Director of Consolidation, Ballia (respondent No. 1) and further quashing the proceedings in pursuance thereof in Tej Bahadur v. Ranjeet and others, Case No. 408 and in Ranjeet and another v. Sarvjeet, Case No. 409, pending before Consolidation Officer, Sikanderpur, Ballia.\n<\/p>\n
 2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, the learned counsel for the respondent No. 2, and the learned standing counsel for the respondent No. 1. With the consent of the learned counsel for the parties, the writ petition is finally disposed of at the admission stage.\n<\/p>\n
 3. Undisputedly, the petitioners’ objections, preferred under Section 9 of the U. P. Consolidation of Holdings Act (hereinafter referred to as the Act only), the Consolidation Officer consolidated both the objections, and passed a single order on 14th March, 1997 allowing the petitioners’ objections. Aggrieved by the said order, the respondent No. 2 preferred appeal before the Settlement Officer, Ballia, filed restoration applications<\/p>\n
and during the pendency of appeals also preferred Revision before the Deputy Director of Consolidation (respondent No. 1) under Section 48 of the Act along with application for condonation of delay under Section 5 of the Indian Limitation Act. Both the restoration applications were dismissed for default on 31.8.1998. In appeal and revision, both the parties appeared. The petitioners also filed cross-appeal. Both the appeals were consolidated. In revision petition before the Deputy Director of Consolidation, Ballia, the petitioners on 8.12.1998 moved applications and raised specific plea challenging the jurisdiction of the Court to entertain and decide the revision in view of the pendency of the appeals before the Settlement Officer, Ballia. The petitioners contended that as the appeals were pending, the Deputy Director of Consolidation had no jurisdiction to decide the revision. The Deputy Director of Consolidation overruled the petitioners’ objection and allowed revision by the impugned order dated 18.12.1998, and has remanded the case for fresh adjudication before the Consolidation Officer on the petitioners’ objections under Section 9 of the Act.\n<\/p>\n
 4. The only point, which arises for adjudication in this writ petition, is whether the respondent No. 2 having filed appeal against the order dated 14th March, 1997, the revision before the Deputy Director of Consolidation was maintainable. In Sontosh Kumar v. U. P. Sanchalak Chakbandi, 1998 RD 578, a Bench of this Court has held that the revision petition under Section 48 preferred directly without filing appeal is not maintainable. Another Bench of this Court in Manmohon v. Deputy Director of Consolidation, 1996 (Suppl.) AWC 158, has also held that challenge in revision under Section 48 of the Act without availing remedy of appeal is destructive of statutory remedy. In the present case, the appeal preferred by the respondent No. 2 and cross-appeal thereto filed by the petitioners were already pending before the Settlement Officer, Ballia. Section 11 of the Act specifically provides for appeal against the order passed by<\/p>\n
the Consolidation Officer. Where the appeal is pending, it is not appropriate for the Deputy Director of Consolidation to interfere in revision, specially, when the scope of interference in appeal is much wider than the scope of interference in revision.\n<\/p>\n
 5.   The learned counsel for the respondent No.  2  argued that the remedy under Article 226\/227 of the Constitution   of India  is  equitable remedy,  the order  passed   by   the learned Consolidation Officer shows that the objection of the petitioners under Section 9 of the Act was moved after a period  of twenty years,   the case was not registered,  no notice was given to the respondent No. 2 and as such, it is not a fit case for exercise   of   equitable   jurisdiction under    Article    226\/227    of    the Constitution of India.  Further,  the learned counsel argued  that under Section   48  of  the   Act   the   Deputy Director     of    Consolidation     can exercise jurisdiction suo motu, as has been  done  by  him  in  the  present case, apparent from the observations appearing in the impugned order. The learned  counsel  relied  upon  a Full Bench   decision   of   this   Court   in Ramakant Singh u. Deputy Director of Consolidation, U. P., AIR 1975 All 126 (FB) ; Jagdishwar Sahai v.  Deputy Director of Consolidation, 1984 RD 244 and in Parahu v. Deputy Director of Consolidation,  U. P.  at  Gorakhpur, 1964 ALJ 240. In Parahu v.   Deputy Director  of Consolidation,   U.   P.   at Gorakhpur (supra), a Division Bench of this Court observed that where in revision    the    Deputy    Director   of Consolidation   acts   in   excess   of jurisdiction   vested   in   him   under Section 48 of the Act, but his order is proper, equitable and just order, the High Court should not issue writ for setting aside such an equitable order. In Jagdishwar   Sahai    v.    Deputy Director of Consolidation (supra), this Court observed that even where an appeal   lying   from   an   order   of consolidation authority is not filed, the revisional authorities have wide powers   to   entertain   revisions.   In Ramakant Singh v. Deputy Director of Consolidation, U. P.  (supra). In para 17 of the Law Report, relied upon by<\/p>\n
the learned counsel for the respondent No. 2, the Full Bench of this Court observed :\n<\/p>\n
 “After the record has been called for by the Deputy Director of Consolidation under Section 48 of the U. P. Consolidation of Holdings Act he should examine” the record to decide whether it was a fit case for exercise of the revisional jurisdiction suo motu. Such opinion shall have to be formed even where the application in revision moved by a party is defective having been made beyond the prescribed, period of limitation or alt the necessary parties have not been impleaded.\n<\/p>\n
 If the Deputy Director of Consolidation finds that the case requires further hearing he shall give notice to all the necessary parties irrespective of whether they were or were not impleaded in the application and after giving them reasonable opportunity of hearing pass such orders as he thinks fit. Where the application in revision is not defective and is maintainable the exercise of revisional jurisdiction shall be at the instance of the parties and not suo motu.”\n<\/p>\n
 6. The facts of these three cases relied upon by the learned counsel for the respondent No. 2 are different. In all these three cases the appeal before the Settlement Officer was not pending, in the instant case, as seen above the appeal and cross-appeals were pending before the Settlement Officer (Consolidation), the petitioners specifically urged before the Deputy Director of Consolidation that in view of the pendency of the appeal, the revision was not maintainable. The present case is a case where the Jurisdiction exercised by the Deputy Director of Consolidation is destructive of the statutory remedy of appeal and it is a fit case which calls for interference in petitions under Article 226\/227 of the Constitution of India.\n<\/p>\n
 7. In the result, the petition succeeds, and is hereby allowed. The<\/p>\n
impugned judgment, dated 18.12.1998 (Annexure-1 to the writ petition), passed by the Deputy Director of Consolidation, respondent No. 1, is hereby quashed, and the further proceedings in pursuance thereof in Tej Bahadur v. Ranjeet and others, Case No. 408 and Ranjeet and others v. Sarvjeet, Case No. 409, pending before the Consolidation Officer. Sikanderpur, Ballia, are also hereby quashed.\n<\/p>\n
 8.   No order as to costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
