The perusal of the impugned order discloses that the land in question was ``Gocher land; for which khatedari rights cannot accrue to any body. The suit was decreed because true facts about the land being ``Gocher land and the proceedings under Section 91 of the land Revenue Act having been initiated by the Tehsildar and the order for ejectment being asked by him were concealed from the Assistent Collector. Hence, the decision of the Assistent Collector declaring the petitioner khatedar of the disputed land was illegal. Hence, the decision of the Assistent Collector declaring the petitioner khatedar of the disputed land was illegal. The conduct of the petitioner in concealing the true facts in the plaint and the irresponsibility displayed by the tehsildar in filling a vague written statement was also an important factor which weighed with the board to exercise its supervisory jurisdiction. At any rate the board had jurisdiction under Section 221 of the Act to set aside the illegal decree of the assistant collector. It is of no significance that the order was passed in a reference made by the collector. In such circumstances, when the petitioners are guilty of playing fraud on the court by supressing material fact and there has been no failure of justice by the impugned order they can not ask us to interfere by a writ of certiorary. The boards order is just and proper. The writ petition is therefore, dismissed summarily.
