ORDER Leave granted. 2. Shorn of all details, the essential facts required to be noticed in these appeals are as follows : Acquisition proceedings commenced with the preliminary notification issued under Section 4 of the Rajasthan Land Acquisition Act, 1953 (hereinafter referred to as the Act ) on 13.5.1960. It was followed by a declaration under Section 6 of the Act on 3.5.1961. Award was made on 9.1.1964. According to the respondents, the acquisition of 3 bighas and 10 biswas of land from khasra No. 35 had been wrongly included in the Award dated 9.1.1964. The respondent, therefore, filed a writ petition being W.P. No. 2935/92 for protecting his rights in respect 3 of bighas and 10 biswas of land comprised in khasra No. 35. The writ petition was resisted mainly on the plea that in the Award made as early as in 1964, 3 bighas and 10 biswas of land in khasra No. 35, had been included. It was also maintained that possession of entire land including 3 bighas and 10 biswas in khasra No. 35 had already been taken and even compensation had been paid to the land owners. A learned Single Judge of the Rajasthan High Court dismissed the writ petition on various grounds vide order dated 15.3.1994. 3. The order of learned Single Judge was challenged in appeal before a Division Bench in D.B. Special Appeal No. 245/1994. The said special appeal was heard by a Bench comprising Mr. Justice V.K. Singhal and Mr. Justice Arun Madan. The Division Bench dismissed the special appeal against the order of learned Single Judge, vide its order dated 12.5.1994. The writ petitioner (respondent herein) filed a review petition in the High Court against the judgment of the Division Bench in D.B. Special Appeal 254/94. He also filed a special leave petition against the same order dated 12.5.1994 in this Court. The special leave petition was dismissed in limine on 15.9.1995. Review petition against the order of Division Bench dated 12.5.1994 came up before the High Court after dismissal of the special leave petition by this Court. The appellant resisted the review petition on various grounds, including the ground that after dismissal of the special leave petition, review petition against the order dated 12.5.1994 was no longer maintainable. 4. The review petition came up for consideration before a Bench comprising of Mr. Justice Arun Madan and Mr. The appellant resisted the review petition on various grounds, including the ground that after dismissal of the special leave petition, review petition against the order dated 12.5.1994 was no longer maintainable. 4. The review petition came up for consideration before a Bench comprising of Mr. Justice Arun Madan and Mr. Justice M.A. Khan (since Mr. Justice V.K. Singhal had in the meantime retired). The Division Bench comprising of Mr. Justice Arun Madan and Mr. Justice M.A. Khan on 27.1.1999, issued notice to show cause why the review petition be not admitted, heard and decided. The matter was thereafter listed before a Bench comprising of Mr. Justice V.S. Kokje, Acting Chief Justice and Mr. Justice Arun Madan, when the order (impugned in Civil Appeal Arising out of SLP (C) 11350/2000) was passed on 18.5.2000. By that impugned order inter alia the Division Bench directed that review petition be placed before Mr. Justice Arun Madan alone sitting singly. Reference was made to Rule 64 of the Rajasthan High Court Rules, 1952 while issuing that direction. The review petition was, accordingly, placed before Mr. Justice Arun Madan on the next day as directed. The review petition, however, came to be heard by Mr. Justice Arun Madan on 2.6.2000 when it was admitted. It was further directed by Madan, J. that the petition be listed for final hearing on 12.7.2000. The appellant was directed to make available the original record pertaining to land acquisition proceedings for perusal of the Court. Order dated 2.6.2000 has been put in issue in Civil Appeal Arising out SLP (C) No. 11504/2000. Both these appeals are being disposed of by us by this common order. 5. Learned counsel for the respondent has drawn our attention to an order made by Mr. Justice V.S. Kokje, Acting Chief Justice, who was a party to the order made on 18.5.2000 (subject matter of Civil Appeal Arising out of SLP (C) No. 11350/2000), in HCM Institute RIPA v. Jai Singh & Ors.1 wherein a view similar to the one taken on 18.5.2000 had been expressed. 6. We have carefully perused the judgment in HCM Institute RIPA (supra) and have serious doubts about the correctness of the same not only because that judgment impinges upon the roster making powers of the Chief Justice of the High Court (which powers are protected even in Rule 64 of the High Court Rules). 6. We have carefully perused the judgment in HCM Institute RIPA (supra) and have serious doubts about the correctness of the same not only because that judgment impinges upon the roster making powers of the Chief Justice of the High Court (which powers are protected even in Rule 64 of the High Court Rules). However, we need not detain ourselves to deal with this issue at any length in this case because, having regard to essential facts and circumstances of this case, where the order of the Division Bench in special appeal is being sought to be reviewed, learned Counsel for the parties agree that the review petition be directed to be heard by a Division Bench of the High Court of Rajasthan instead of by a Single Judge. We, accordingly, allow these appeals and set aside the impugned orders dated 18.5.2000 and 2.6.2000. We direct that the review petition be placed for its consideration and disposal before a Division Bench of the High Court of Rajasthan to be constituted by the Hon ble Chief Justice of that High Court. We request the Hon ble Chief Justice to constitute the Division Bench at the earliest so as to dispose of the review petition expeditiously. 7. We clarify that nothing said hereinabove shall be construed as any expression of opinion on the merits of the case. 8. The appeals are allowed in the above terms. No costs. Appeals allowed. **************** Parallel Citations of other Journals : Jaipur Development Authority v. Cotte Lal (Dead) & Ors., 2001(4) Supreme 286 : 2001 (3) JT 538 00030
