Mangya v. Dhanna

K.S.RANAWAT, SHYAMLAL

body1954
This second appeal has been filed against an appellate order of the Additional Settlement Commissioner, Rajasthan (Jaipur Division) dated 11.12.1953 upholding the order of the Settlement Officer whereby he refused to entertain the application for correction in the parcha chakhandi. 2. As the respondents counsel did not put in appearance despite notice the appeal was heard ex parte. In view of the fact that the appellant had not filed any objections under see. 85(1) of the Jaipur State-Grants Land Tenures Act after the distribution of slips under sec. 84(2) of the Act, the Settlement Officer had no jurisdiction to take any action over the appellants request for correction in the parcha chakbandi. As observed by the learned Additional Settlement Commissioner the settlement operation in the area have come to a close and the same has been notified in the Government Gazette. Apparently the Settlement Officers have now no jurisdiction in the matter, which is clearly governed by item No. 18, Group D Schedule I of the Rajasthan Revenue Courts (Procedure and Jurisdiction) Act. With these observations we would reject this appeal.
