ORDER
05.08.2026
1. This Court is not inclined to entertain this writ petition as the petitioner has an appellate as well as revisional remedy available under J&K Land Revenue Act, Svt. 1996 with respect to his purported grievance aired in this writ petition, even though time barred, by reference to an impugned order dated 07.01.2026 passed by the Assistant Commissioner (Revenue).
2. Purportedly the Assistant Commissioner (Revenue) has exercised powers in terms of J&K Land Revenue Act, Svt. 1996 by directing the delivery of Sr. No. 164 Supp. 2
possession of the land forming subject matter of the order.
3. Thus, this writ petition is not entertained with liberty to the petitioner to avail appellate/revisional remedy before the appellate authority of the Divisional Commissioner, Kashmir or the Financial Commissioner (Revenue), J&K in terms of J&K Land Revenue Act, Svt. 1996 as may intended/advised to be availed.
