Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD ZAIN-UL-ABIDEEN VS HAMID SAEED S. 8---Review---Scope---Scope of review under S.8 of the Punjab Board of Revenue Act, 1957, is narrow and exceptional, requiring a demonstrable error apparent on the face of the record, or a jurisdictional or legal misapprehension so fundamental as to vitiate the underlying order---In the present case, impugned order passed by the same Member - Board of Revenue departed from settled legal principles and disregarded material evidence and proceeded on a misconstruction of both law and fact; it failed to engage with the statutory limitations on revenue jurisdiction under the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1967, and overlooked the evidentiary value of registered documents duly produced on record---This Court, therefore, is not reappreciating evidence, but correcting a manifest legal error that strikes at the very root of judicial consistency and jurisdictional propriety---Thus, the review is not only maintainable, but imperative to uphold the integrity of adjudication within the bounds of lawful authority; it was compelled by the imperatives of justice, legality, and institutional discipline---Consequently, the impugned order passed by the Member-Board of Revenue, Punjab, was set aside---Review petition was allowed.
