petitioner which appeal was also dismissed by the learned First Appellate Court vide order dated 12.09.2023. Hence, the present revision petition.
3.
Learned counsel for the plaintiff-petitioner would contend that it is an admitted case that the land was exchanged by the plaintiff-petitioner and the defendant-respondents No.1 and 2 and that the tubewell fell to the share of the plaintiff-petitioner. Learned counsel would further contend that an affidavit dated 22.11.2013 qua the sale of the tubewell connection was executed for a sale consideration of ₹60,000 by defendant-respondent No.1 wherein it was clearly stated that the connection was purchased by the plaintiff-petitioner from defendant-respondent No.1.

Heard.
5.
In the present case the case set up by the plaintiff-petitioner is that he purchased the tubewell connection through an affidavit dated
22.11.2013. The said fact was denied by defendant-respondents No.1 and 2. A Local Commissioner had been appointed who had reported that the tubewell connection in question was existing in Killa No.18/2 of Square No.193 and is still in existence in the said Killa. Though the plaintiff-petitioner had taken a stand that the connection was shifted from Killa No.12 to 13 after completing all the formalities, however, no document was placed on the record qua the same. The report of the Local Commissioner dated 25.11.2019 also stated that there was no connection in Killa No.12 or 13. Both the Courts concerned observed that the bills were still being issued in the name of Vakil Singh and mere production of the same by the plaintiff-petitioner would not mean that the payment was being made by him.
