Judgment & Decree

Revision No. 287 of 1961‑62, decided on 29th August 1962, District Peshawar.

para. 7 Partition proceedings completed on 18‑11‑1958 and instrument of partition prepared Mutation proceeding pendingRegulation, which came into force on 7‑2‑1959, does not affect partition. Mahfooz Khan for Petitioner. Muhammad Afzal for Respondents. In my opinion this revision petition has no force and should be dismissed. The partition proceedings in dispute had been completed on 18‑11‑1958, as on that day the file was consigned to the Record Room after the preparation of the instrument of partition. Martial Law Regulation No. 64 came into operation on 7‑2‑1959 and does not, therefore, affect an accomplished fact. The mere fact that the mutation in respect of the partition is pending does not mean that the partition proceedings have not been finally concluded. The mutation only incorporates in the revenue records a fact which has already been completed and has no other significance ; it cannot therefore form the basis of the contention that partition proceedings are still in conclusive in character. The revision petition for these reasons stands dismissed. K. M. A. Petition dismissed.
