3) Further grievance of the petitioners is that the State Government is not purchasing the paddy cultivated and produced from the agricultural land which was given through Van Adhikar Manyata Praman Patra to the petitioners.
4) At this juncture, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that now the State has started to purchase the paddy from the present petitioners and thus, the petition may be disposed of in light of the judgment passed in W.P.(227) No.755 of 2014 and the similar issue was involved in that case.
5) Learned State counsel has no objection.
6) Considering the fact that the lease which was granted to the petitioners in this case and the lease granted to the petitioners in W.P.(227) No.755 of 2020 are same and they belong to same village, therefore, this petition is disposed of in light of the ratio laid down in W.P.(227) No. 755 of 2020.
7) Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of.
