Upon going through the pleadings and hearing the parties as well as considering the position of law as laid down in the Bihar Privileged Persons Homestead Tenancy Act, 1947 (Bihar Act IV of 1948), the power of settlement of Parcha has been discussed in detail under Section 17 (A) of the said Act and a provision has also been made under Section 18 of the said Act that the orders passed under this Act shall be final subject to provision of Section 21 of the said Act. Section 21 of the said Act is a power specially provided to the Collector of the District to call for and examine the record. Section 21 of the said act states as follows:- “21.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any judgment, decree or order of any Court or authority; the Collector of the district may on his own motion or on the application of any party, or on reference being made by any subordinate authority, call for and examine record of any case decided or proceeding taken by the Collector under the Act for satisfying himself as to the regularity of the proceeding or to the correctness, legality or propriety of an order passed by the Collector under the Act in the case or proceeding, and may after, allowing the parties concerned opportunity of being heard, direct that the case or the proceeding be reopened and disposed of afresh in accordance with the provisions of this Act.” 7.
