https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=288949 Section 16-A of the Madras Cultivating Tenants Protection Act bars civil court jurisdiction over matters the Act assigns to the Record Officer or other empowered authorities, so the question whether a person is a cultivating tenant must be decided within that statutory framework. Section 15 does not create any independent civil court jurisdiction; it is only a rule of evidence making approved tenancy entries presumed true until rebutted or lawfully replaced. Because the Act provides its own machinery for modification, appeal, revision, and record amendment, the civil court could not entertain the suit on tenancy status, and the dismissal was restored. en-us Wed, 21 Jan 1976 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 07 Jul 2020 12:35:42 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=288949 Section 16-A of the Madras Cultivating Tenants Protection Act bars civil court jurisdiction over matters the Act assigns to the Record Officer or other empowered authorities, so the question whether a person is a cultivating tenant must be decided within that statutory framework.
