I am unable to persuade myself to agree with the contentions raised on behalf of the appellants. The courts below have considered and appreciated the evidence led on record and as per copies of jamabandi Ex.P2, P-4 and P-5 and khasra girdawari Ex.P-3 and P-6. It has been held that the land in question is in joint ownership of the parties along with other cosharers. It has been held that the suit land has not been partitioned so far. Any alleged private partition between the parties would carry no value in the eyes of law unless the same is reflected in the revenue record. As per revenue record, the parties have been held to be still in joint ownership and possession of the suit land. No evidence has been led to prove that the defendants-appellants are in separate possession over any piece of the suit land. It has also been noticed that the plaintiffs had already moved an application to the revenue authorities for partition of the suit land and upon order having been passed, the defendants have already impugned the partition order before the court of Commissioner, Patiala. Accordingly, it has been held that the defendants-appellants had no right to change the nature of the suit property as also to cut and remove the trees standing in the suit land.
