ORDER

1. This is a review against an order, dated the 10th of July 1961 passed by my predecessor whereby he agreed with the views of the Land Commissioner, Bahawalpur but it was left open to the petitioner to get the revenue records corrected through a competent Court of law relating to six acres in dispute and then approach the Land Commission authorities, if necessary.

2. The facts of the case are given in the order mentioned above. It has been urged before me that action to get the revenue records corrected is not possible because, by an oversight, my learned predecessor, used the words "Competent Court of Law". Actually, the corrections are 'to be made by the Competent Revenue Authorities. It has been prayed that the order passed by my learned predecessor be amended accordingly. This is a reasonable request and I, therefore, accept the review and direct that in para. 5 of my learned predecessor's order dated the 10th of July 1961, the words "Competent Court of law" shall be replaced by the words "Competent Revenue Authorities".

S. Q. Petition accepted.
