Judgment Rajeev Gupta, C.J. He is heard. 2. The petitioner is seeking review of the order dated 6th of May, 2006*, whereby the two questions referred by the learned Single Judge were answered in Para 12 of the order, which reads as follows: . 'Therefore, both the questions referred as mentioned above by learned Single Judge of this Court, are answered as under: Answer to Question No.1 :- Sub Section (4) of Section 331 of U.P. Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950 (U.P. Act NO.1 of 1951) adopts provision of Section 100 of Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 by incorporation as it existed in 1951 but rest of the provisions of the Code are adopted by reference under Section 341 of U.P. Act. No.1 of 1951. Answer to Question No.2 :- The amended provision of Section 100 of Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, (as amended vide Act No. 104 of 1976, would not apply to sub Section (4) of Section 331 of UP. Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950 (U.P. Act No.1 of 1951) and the said sub Section cannot be deemed to have been substituted after the amendment made in Section 100 of the Code. Writ petitions be listed before appropriate bench with aforesaid answers." 3. Sri Rajendra Dobhal, the learned (counsel) for the review petitioner submits that the effect of sub Section (30) of Section 3 of the U.P. Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, 1950 has not been considered in the above order. 4. Sub Section (30) of Section 3 of the aforesaid Act, reads as follows: "(30) any reference to any enactment shall be construed as a reference to that enactment as amended from time to time in its application to Uttar Pradesh, and in the case of Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, as a reference to that Code subject also to any annulments, alterations and additions to the rules contained in the First Schedule thereto made from time to time under Section 122 thereof by the High Court." 5. Sub Section (30) of Section 3, quoted above, does not make any difference as Sub Section (4) of Section 331 of the Act mentions only Section 100 of Code of Civil Procedure whereas Section 341 refers to the entire Code of Civil Procedure.
Sub Section (30) of Section 3, quoted above, does not make any difference as Sub Section (4) of Section 331 of the Act mentions only Section 100 of Code of Civil Procedure whereas Section 341 refers to the entire Code of Civil Procedure. Therefore, the amended provisions of Code of Civil Procedure would be applicable to Section 341 only and not to Sub Section (4) of Section 331. 6. We, therefore, do not find any ground for review of the order dated 6th of May, 2006. The review petition is, therefore, fails and is hereby dismissed. * * *
