Accordingly, this petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent No.1/Board of Revenue, U.P., Lucknow to consider and decide the Case/Revision No.3377/2024 (Keshavram V/s Rajaram and others) most expeditiously after affording full opportunity of hearing to the parties to the litigation and without granting unnecessary adjournment to either party preferably within a period of six months from the next date fixed in the case, if there is no other legal impediment in this regard. It is made clear that the Court has not examined the case of either party on merits and the Authority concerned shall be free to decide the matter strictly in accordance with law. With the aforesaid, the petition is disposed of.
