ORDER

1. ' SAAD SAOOD JAN, J.--The petitioner was a tenant under one Ilam Din. He filed a writ petition in the High Court against the order of the Additional Chief Land Commissioner whereby !Lam Din was allowed to retain his entire holding under the Land Reforms. The petition was dismissed on the ground that he had no locus standi to challenge the order of the Additional Chief Land Commissioner.

2. 2 After hearing the learned counsel we are not persuaded that the view taken by the High Court with regard to locus standi of the petitioner suffers from any infirmity. The petitioner would have come into the picture only if the Land Commission had found that Ilam Din held excess land and consequent upon that finding Ilam Din elected to surrender the land under cultivation of the petitioner. This petition is without any merit and is hereby dismissed.
