It is not dispute that no permission from the Collector was obtained and the sale was made without the permission of Collector. The respondent cannot transfer his land even though he is declared Bhumiswami, without the permission of the Collector Transfer was made without such permission. so the appellants will not get any legal rights. In the circumstences, the Additional Collector has rightly held that the sale was in contravention of the provisions of Section 165 (7-B) of the Code and is void. Mutation effected on the basis of sale was set aside and the land was directed to be recorded in the name of the respondent No. 1. 6. Learned counsel for the appellants has also drawn our attention to the amendment in section 158 (3) of the Code, which was inserted by the Amendment Act No. 17 of 1992 on 28.10.1992 which reads as under. Provided that no such person shall transfer such land within a period of ten years from the date of lease or allotment. This provision was enacted on 28.10.1992, much after the transaction of sale in this case. Though it provides that after expiry of a period of ten years, the land may be transferred, but it its also subject to the prohibition of section 165 (7-B) of the Code. So until and unless such a permission is granted by the Collector with cogent reasons. the sale is not permissible. The above said enactment has been made to restrict the transfer of the land which has been granted on lease by the State Government to landless person and such person cannot be deprived of the land by any transfer except as permissible under Section 165 (7-B) of the Code and gives jurisdiction to the Collector to consider such a prayer only after a period of ten years and not before that.'' bUgÈ ifjfLFkfr;¨a esa] ekuuh; mPp U;k;ky; dh ;qxyihB }kjk lchuk ikdZ fjlkVZl ,.M VwlZ Xokfy;j fo#) e-ç- 'kklu ¼2012 vkj,u 246½¾¼2012 ¼3½ ,e-ih-,p-Vh- 67½ us fuEukuqlkj fuèkkZfjr fd;k x;k gS%& ''13.

Section 165 (7-b) of the M.P. Land Revenue Code contrains a provision in regard to taking permission from the Collector before transfer of the land. which was granted by the State Government on lease. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of keshabo v. State of M.P. Reported in (1996) 7 SCC 765 , which has been quoted by the learned Single judge in the order impugned, has'clearly held the non-compliance of the aforesaid section makes the transaction void. The same proposition has been held by the Division Bench of this Court in the case of Budhuwa Chamar v. Board of Revenue M.P. reported in 2002 (1) MPU.

A reading of this sub-section would also clearly indicate that the Bhumiswami right belonging to a tribe which has been declared to be an aboriginal tribe by the State Government by a notiication in that behalf, of the whole or part of the area to which the Code applies, shall not be transferred to a non-tribal person, not beionging to such tribe. without prior permission of the Revenue Officer not below the rank of Collector, given for reasons to be recorded in writing. The Board of Revenue has pointed out that, prior to the amendment in 1979, obtaining permission for alienation of the land was a condition precedent. It that condition precedent, viz., obtaining prior permission from the competent authority for reasons to be recorded therein was not taken, the sale in contravention of the Act. therefore, becomes void. It is a welfare legistation made to protect the ownership rights in the land of a Scheduled Tube to effectuate the consitutional obligation of Articles 39 (b) and 46 of the Constitution read with the preamble. Economic empowrment of a tribal to provide econnomic democracy is the goal. Prevention of their exploitation due to ignorance or indigency is a constitutional duty under Article 46. Agricultural land gives economic status to the tiller. Therefore, any allenation of land in contravention of the above objectives is void.

Agricultural land gives economic status to the tiller. Therefore, any allenation of land in contravention of the above objectives is void. It is contended that the application under section 170 (1) should have been filed within two years from the date of sale. Since the application was not so filed, the authorities were not right in directting entertainment of the application. It is not in dispute that the authority has jurisdiction suo motu to go into the violation of the statutory provisions. Even otherwise, since it is a beneficial legislation, the authorities are bound to give effect to constitutional policy; they are not devoid jurisdiction, even if it is filed beyond limitation to entertain the application. It is a matter of public policy and of discretion.

It is a matter of public policy and of discretion. Under these circumstances, we do not think there is any substantial question of law warranting interference.'' mä U;k;n`"Vkar¨a ls ;g Li"V gS fd lafgrk dh èkkjk 165 ¼7&[k½ d¢ nkf;Ro dk fuoZgu fd, fcuk Òwfe dk varj.k fd, tkus ls lacafèkr dk iÍk fujLr fd;k tk ldrk gS o ÒwfeLokeh vfèkdkj okil fy, tk ldrs gSa v©j varj.k 'kwU; Ĩf"kr fd;k tk ldrk gSA 11-2 fdlh O;fä d¨ çnÙk 'kkldh; Òwfe dk iÍk fujLr djus o ÒwfeLokeh vfèkdkj okil ysus dh dk;Zokgh ,d vR;ar l'kä o l[r dk;Zokgh gSA bl vfèkdkj d¢ ç;¨x ls lacafèkr d¨ viw.kÊ; {kfr g¨rh gSA vr% ;g dk;Zokgh fd;k tkuk rÒh v©fpR;iw.kZ gS] tc ;g iw.kZr;k o fcuk fdlh la'k; d¢ LFkkfir g¨ ld¢ fd lacafèkr }kjk lafgrk dh èkkjk 165 ¼7&[k½ d¢ mYyaÄu esa Òwfe dk varj.k fd;k x;k gSA 11-3 tSlk fd iSjk 9 esa fu"d"kZ fudkyk x;k gS] vihykFkÊ }kjk fu"ikfnr vuqcaèk&i= ls çR;FkÊ i{k dk LoRo dk varj.k çekf.kr ugÈ gqvk gSA ç'ukèkhu vuqcaèk&i=] vihykFkÊ }kjk varj.k dh dqps"Vk vo'; gSA ijarq ;g fopkj.kh; gS fd D;k mä dqps"Vk d¨ lafgrk dh èkkjk 182 varxZr iÍk fujfLr d¢ fy, i;kZIr vkèkkj ekuk tk ldrk gSA bl lacaèk esa ;g ijh{k.k fd;k tkuk Òh vko';d g¨ tkrk gS fd D;k vihykFkÊ }kjk ç'ukèkhu Òwfe dk dCtk çR;FkÊ i{k d¨ varfjr fd;k x;kA 11-4 vihykFkÊ d¨ ç'ukèkhu Òwfe d¢ lacaèk esa] v¨yk ihfM+r g¨us ls eqvkotk çkIr gqvkA mUg¨aus o"kZ 2015 esa Òwfe ij cSad _.k fy;k gSA blls vihykFkÊ dk ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij LoRo o dCtk LFkkfir g¨rk gS] D;¨afd eqvkot+k rFkk cSad _.k ÒwfeLokeh d¨ gh çnku fd;k tkrk gSA 11-5 O;ogkjokn Ø-26@2012 esa vihykFkÊ d¢ i{k esa ikfjr vkns'k fnukad 7-12-2018 esa çR;FkÊ d¢ fo#) vLFkkà fu"ksèkkKk tkjh dh xà gSA bl vLFkkà fu"ksèkkKk d¢ fo#) çR;FkÊ }kjk f}rh; vij ftyk U;k;kèkh'k] lcyxढ+ ftyk eqjSuk d¢ le{k okn flfoy vihy Ø- 5@04@2018 çLrqr dh xÃ] t¨ vkns'k fnukad 5-4-2018 ls fujLr dh tk pqdh gSA O;ogkj U;k;ky; d¢ vkns'k¨a ls ;g Li"V gS fd çR;FkÊ d¨ vihykFkÊ d¢ vfèkiR; esa gLr{ksi u djus d¢ vkns'k fn, x, gSaA bu vkns'k¨a ls Òh ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij vihykFkÊ dk LoRo o vfèkiR; çekf.kr g¨rk gSA 11-6 ;g LFkkfir gS fd vihykFkÊ }kjk 'kkldh; iÍs ij çnÙk Òwfe d¢ varj.k dh dqps"Vk dh xà gSA dysDVj d¢ ç'ukèkhu vkns'k dk ;g fofu'p; lgh gS fd ^^;g varj.k iw.kZr% fofèk fo#) g¨us ls 'kwU; ,oa O;FkZ gS^^A ijarq iSjk 11-3 ls 11-5 d¢ vkèkkj ij ;g fcuk la'k; ls LFkkfir ugÈ g¨rk gS fd vihykFkÊ }kjk ç'ukèkhu Òwfe dk varj.k çR;FkÊ d¨ fd;k x;k gSA vihykFkÊ dk dCt+k ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij jgk gSA vihykFkÊ ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij vius vfèkdkj d¢ fy, çR;FkÊ d¢ fo#) flfoy o jktLo U;k;ky; esa ltx jgk gSA mä ifjçs{; esa vfÒdfFkr varj.k d¢ vkèkkj ij dysDVj }kjk vihykFkÊ dk iÍk fujLr djus o ç'ukèkhu Òwfe dh u¨Ã;r iwoZor 'kkldh; Ĩf"kr djus dk vkns'k fofèk&lEer ugÈ dgk tk ldrk rFkkfi vihykFkÊ d¨ ;g lpsr fd;k tkuk vko';d gS fd os Òfo"; esa bl çdkj dh =qfV u djsa] cfYd lafgrk varxZr vfèkj¨fir nkf;Ro¨a dk ikyu djsaA 12- çR;FkÊ vfèkoäk dk ;g rdZ ekU; fd, tkus ;¨X; ugÈ gS fd n¨u¨a vèkhuLFk U;k;ky;¨a d¢ leorÊ fu"d"kZ esa gLr{ksi ugÈ fd;k tk ldrk] D;¨afd tSlk fd Åij fu"d"kZ fudky x, gSa fd çdj.k esa çLrqr foØ; vuqcaèk i= d¢ vkèkkj ij çR;FkÊ Øekad 1 d¨ fdlh çdkj dk LoRo çkIr ugÈ gqvk gS v©j fofèk&fo#) varj.k dh dqps"Vk d¢ mijkar Òh vihykFkÊ dk ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij dCt+k jgk gS v©j vihykFkÊ d¢ LoRo ;Fkkor jgrs gSaA ,slh fLFkfr esa] n¨u¨a vèkhuLFk U;k;ky;¨a }kjk bu egRoiw.kZ vkèkkj¨a ij fcuk fopkj fd,] fudkys x, leorÊ fu"d"kZ nLrkost ,oa fu;e¨a d¢ foijhr g¨us ls fujLr fd, tkus ;¨X; gSA 13- mij¨ä foospuk d¢ vkèkkj ij fuxjkuh Lohdkj dh tkrh gSA vij vk;qä dk vkns'k fnukad 6-8-2019 ,oa dysDVj dk vkns'k fnukad 22-10-2018 fujLr fd;k tkrk gSA 14- lkFk gh] dysDVj d¨ ;g funsZ'k fn, tkrs gSa fd ç'ukèkhu Òwfe d¢ lacaèk esa [kljs esa ^^dysDVj dh vuqKk d¢ fcuk vgLrkarj.kh;^^ dh çfof"V dh tk,A vihykFkÊ i{k d¨ lpsr fd;k tkrk gS fd os 'kklu }kjk çnÙk iÍs d¢ lacaèk esa lafgrk }kjk vfèkj¨fir nkf;Ro¨a dk fuoZgu djsa] ftld¢ vuqlkj fcuk dysDVj dh vuqKk d¢ Òwfe dk varj.k oftZr gSA dysDVj d¨ ;g funsZ'k Òh fn, tkrs gSa fd ;fn ç'ukèkhu Òwfe ij çR;FkÊ i{k }kjk dCtk fd;k x;k g¨] r¨ mls 'khÄz eqä djk;k tk, v©j vihykFkÊ d¨ dCt+k fnyk;k tk,A dysDVj U;k;ky; d¢ vkns'k esa ;g mYys[k gS fd çR;FkÊ i{k o mld¢ ifjokj }kjk rglhy lcyxढ+ esa yxÒx 30 chÄk Òwfe ij vfrØe.k@dCt+k fd;k x;k gS] ml lacaèk esa Òh tk¡p dj vko';d dk;Zokgh dh tk,A[ 2021 DIGILAW 24 (MP) · digilaw.ai ]
