https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=199709 The Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1948 creates a special scheme for abolition of estates and ryotwari settlement, including separate machinery for rival claims to ryotwari pattas and for disputes on who is the lawful ryot of a holding after notification. Section 56(1)(c) is an independent provision and is not confined by Section 55 or by Section 56(1)(a) and (b), because a narrower reading would frustrate the Act's object and deny an effective mechanism for deciding ryots' claims. Disputes on lawful ryot status must therefore be determined exclusively by the Settlement Officer and the Estates Abolition Tribunal. en-us Wed, 14 Feb 1979 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 09 Mar 2018 15:12:16 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=199709 The Andhra Pradesh (Andhra Area) Estates (Abolition and Conversion into Ryotwari) Act, 1948 creates a special scheme for abolition of estates and ryotwari settlement, including separate machinery for rival claims to ryotwari pattas and for disputes on who is the lawful ryot of a holding after notification.
