2. Admittedly a Partition Suit No.160 of 2012 is pending between the parties before the Civil Judge, Hazaribag. During pendency of the partition suit, the State has cancelled the Jamabandi which was running in the name of both the parties, rather has corrected the same and entered the name of respondent Nos. 7, 8 and 9, who are also party in the partition suit.
3. Since, the entire disputes relate to share in the property in question, thus, better it would be if the partition suit is decided by the
competent Civil Cout by declaration as to what are the shares of the parties, who are involved in the partition suit. Once the decree is passed, it is expected that the Revenue Authority will make necessary correction in the record as per the judgment and decree.
4. The Trial Court will not be prejudiced by Annexure-4, which is the order passed by the Revenue Authority.
5. Accordingly, this writ petition stands disposed of. Pending, I.A. if any, stands dispose of.
