Ishwar Singh vs Satbir Singh & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the appointment of Lambardar for village Pehladgarh, which became vacant after the previous Lambardar's death. The Collector appointed Respondent No. 1, Satbir Singh, citing his suitability based on age and land ownership, while the Commissioner later reversed this decision in favor of Appellant Ishwar Singh, highlighting his military background and experience. The Financial Commissioner upheld the Commissioner's order, leading to the appeal. The Court held that the appointment of Ishwar Singh as Lambardar was justified based on his superior qualifications and clean antecedents, affirming the Commissioner's decision.
