From Bagala Prasanna Das, Mafizal Huq and others purported to derive their interest in the taluk, and in the last Cadastral Survey records the names of Mafizal Huq and his cosharers appeared as the holders of the patni. The patni was sold under Regulation 8 of 1819 at the instance of the zamindar on 16th May 1989, and the purchaser was Abul (sic) Awal who is the petitioner before us.
