¶7

The petitioner has filed this writ petition against the order dated 21.02.2017 passed in Land Ceiling Revision case No. 214 of 2012 by which the learned Divisional Commissioner, Darbhanga dismissed the Land Ceiling Revision case No. 214 of 2012 on the ground that requisition for issuance of notice on O. P. No. 2 to 7 was not submitted and when the restoration petition was filed for restoring Land Ceiling Revision case No. 214 of 2012 the same was dismissed on the ground that the restoration petition was filed after 87 days. The period of filing restoration petition was only 30 days.

¶8
