Be that as it may, fact remains that no decision has been taken on the mutation in question i.e. 18917 by the Assistant Collector Ist Grade, Bhiwani. Petitioner and respondent No.4 will be at liberty to file other relevant documents, including judgments of various Courts before the authorities concerned. If the documents are not filed, authorities will be otherwise bound to decide the matter in the light of evidence brought on record after giving notice to all concerned parties. Needful shall be done preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order.
