The petitioners have not been able to show their title over the land. The order has been upheld by the Revisional Authority. 5. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners has only contended that the possession over the land is old and therefore, the orders are illegal. 6. This Court is not convinced with the arguments of learned counsel for the petitioners, in so much as the impugned order indicates that the land is a Gair Mumkin Johar. The land is required to be used for the common purposes. The orders have been passed while relying on relevant material as noted above and therefore, do not call for judicial review in extraordinary writ jurisdiction. Petition is dismissed. ---------0.B.S.0------------
