Consolidation of Holdings Act concluded and proceeding for allotment was going on. The objections under Section 20 of U. P. Consolidation of Holdings Act were pending before Consolidation Authority arising out of allotment of chaks. By a notification dated 27-11-1999 under Section 6 (1) of U. P. Consolidation of Holdings Act earlier notification was cancelled which is impugned in the present writ petition.

In reply to the same, learned Standing Counsel supported the impugned notification and relied upon paragraph 5 of counter affidavit.
