ORDER

1. NASIM HASAN SHAH, J.--The relevant facts are that on 1-10-1964 Mst. Ghulam Zohra, respondent No. 1 reported to the Village Patwari that she had gifted 471 Kanals 5 Marlas to her husband Noor Muhammad (respondent No. 2 herein) and 1424 Kanals 5 Marlas to Muhammad Iqbal her son: Mutation No. 2 was effected on 11-11-1965 in favour of the said donees.

2. Dissatisfied, the respondent again moved the High Court by Writ Petition No. 2190 of 1974 and the same was accepted on 15-3-1977 on the view that both the transactions were indeed inter- connected.

3. We have heard Mr. Tanvir Ahmad, learned A. A. G. On behalf of the Additional Chief Land Commissioner but see no reason to differ with the view) taken by the learned Judge in the High Court with regard to his conclusion that the two transactions were inter-connected and, therefore, the Additional Chief Land Commissioner had acted without lawful authority in separating the two transactions by misreading the record.
