It was also averred in the suit that the suit land is an ancestral land and was in the name of Shri Ganpat Ram, the husband of the petitioner No. 1. But due to collusion of some revenue officers, the respondents succeeded in removing his name from the revenue record. The respondent Nos. 4 & 5 filed their written statements and denied the facts of the suit and also filed a counterclaim on the basis of adverse possession against the petitioners. The petitioners filed reply to the counterclaim. On 20.06.2007, the learned SDO framed four issues on the basis of pleadings. Both the parties led their evidence and also filed documents. After examining the record and on the basis of evidence recorded from both the parties, vide order dated 25.09.2008, the learned SDO decreed the suit in favour of the petitioners and declared the petitioners as recorded tenant of half portion of the suit land. Aggrieved by the said order dated 25.09.2008, on 03.10.2008, the respondent Nos. 4 & 5 filed an appeal before the Revenue Appellate Authority ('the RAA', for short). On 17.11.2008, the petitioners also filed an appeal against the order dated 25.09.2008 before the RAA as the suit was not decreed in respect of permanent injunction and correction of revenue record. Vide order dated 14.01.2009, the learned RAA decided the appeals by a common order and allowed the appeal of the petitioners whereby the respondents were restrained by permanent injunction.
