https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183403 Revenue mutation proceedings under the Madhya Pradesh Land Revenue Code did not operate as res judicata in a later civil suit for title and possession because mutation authorities are fiscal bodies and not civil courts competent to finally adjudicate immovable property rights. Entries in land records were only presumptively correct and remained open to rebuttal in civil proceedings. Statements recorded in those mutation proceedings and related revenue materials were also insufficient under the Evidence Act to prove marriage, parentage, or adoption, as the statutory conditions for relying on such evidence were not satisfied and the materials were self-serving and uncorroborated. The concurrent findings against the claimant were therefore upheld and the suit failed. en-us Thu, 19 Dec 2002 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 08 Jun 2016 15:59:02 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=183403 Revenue mutation proceedings under the Madhya Pradesh Land Revenue Code did not operate as res judicata in a later civil suit for title and possession because mutation authorities are fiscal bodies and not civil courts competent to finally adjudicate immovable property rights.
