Procedure for dealing with applications for parti- of Shamilat lands.

When the order of partition has become final the officer making the partition shall put the parties entitled to separate possession into possession of such properties. If for any reason any party to a partition complains that he has not been put into separate possession of the lands to which he is entitled under the partition, he may apply to the 1[Revenue officer] or his successor in office to put him in possession. Such an application must be made within three years of the preparation of the instrument of partition as prepared under section 116. If an application be made after the expiry of three years the applicant shall be referred to the Civil Court to seek his relief by a suit for possession.
