2025:UHC:5175
5. Perusal of the said letter reveals that the process of consolidation of land in Village Shaukanagla, Tehsil Bazpur is complete and the notification has to be issued under Section 52(1) of Consolidation of Land Holdings Act,
1953.
6. Since the consolidation process is over and only notification under Section 52(1) of the aforesaid Act is to be issued, therefore, reliefs claimed in the writ petition cannot be granted, at this belated state.
7. The writ petition, thus, fails and is dismissed.
