https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=275170 Section 7(1) of the Orissa Tenants Protection Act, 1948 confines the Collector's jurisdiction to the specific tenant-landlord disputes listed in clauses (a) to (e) and does not extend to deciding whether the landlord-tenant relationship exists at all. Because exclusion of civil court jurisdiction must be express or necessarily implied, the foundational question of tenancy status remains for the civil court. The limited summary inquiry under section 7(2), the appeal under section 11, and the wider scheme of the Act support that construction, as do disputes involving title or the existence of tenancy under the parent enactment. The civil court therefore retains jurisdiction over whether the respondents were tenants and entitled to protection. en-us Wed, 20 Sep 1961 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 20 Sep 2018 16:55:59 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=275170 Section 7(1) of the Orissa Tenants Protection Act, 1948 confines the Collector's jurisdiction to the specific tenant-landlord disputes listed in clauses (a) to (e) and does not extend to deciding whether the landlord-tenant relationship exists at all.
