ORDER1. This is a reference by an Honorary Assistant Collector of Benares through the Collector under Section 267, Clause (2), Agra Tenancy Act 3 of 1926, under the following circumstances. A suit was brought for arrears of rent due under a theka given by the plaintiff to the defendant in respect of some agricultural lands and shops. There was a joint lease for both the agricultural land and the shops, in which one rent was fixed for both the properties. The suit was filed by the plaintiff for arrears of rent in the civil Court, which returned the plaint for presentation to the revenue Court, finding that the suit was not cognizable by it.

Hansrani (daughter)|--------------------------| |Ram Nain alias Ram Lagan MisirBhagelu Misir |--------------------------| |Bhagauti alias Ramji Misir Bagesari Misir (Plaintiff 1) (Plff. 2).2. It appears that Ram Sudh Man Tiwari was possessed of some zamindari property. He died and after his death his widow Mt. Jaicha Tiwarin came into possession of the said property. After the death of the latter Mt. Hansrani, the daughter, came into possession of the property. She along with Ram Nain on 10th June 1892 sold the property to Kashi Sahu, who is the predecessor of the present defendants. It is not quite clear whether Mt. Hansrani figured as the guardian of Ram Lagan in the sale deed or whether Ram Nain figured as the guardian of Ram Lagan. The lower appellate Court says that the sale deed was executed by Ram Nain for self and as guardian of Ram Lagan. Be that...
