JUDGMENT :
N.J.Jamadar, J.
1. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith, and, with the consent of the parties, heard finally.
2. All these petitions assail the legality, propriety and correctness of an order dated 27 September 2024 passed by the Minister (Revenue and Forest Department) in Revision Application No.3019/10232/Pra.Kra.240/J-6, whereby the said revision application came to be allowed by setting aside the order passed by the Divisional Commissioner, Nashik, in RTS/337/2009 and RTS/338/2009
The High Court confirmed rights established under a 1955 partition decree, emphasizing that the execution of civil court judgments must be respected without unauthorized administrative interference.
Consent orders binding parties must be honored unless evidence of fraud or misrepresentation is provided.
Jurisdiction in partition suits remains intact despite subsequent land acquisitions, and inherent powers under C.P.C. cannot override specific statutory provisions.
A final decree is required before executing a partition, and parties must be granted a hearing to present objections as per the relevant rules.
