The Act's notion of possession was held broad enough to include occupation for cultivation by a deemed tenant, so a varamdar cultivating nilam falls within the statutory scheme. On that basis, the provisions governing fair rent, fixity of tenure, resumption, purchase of landlord's rights, arrears of rent, and future tenancies were read as applicable to varamdars, and such a person is entitled to seek fixation of fair rent under Section 31. en-us Fri, 05 Apr 1968 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 06 Nov 2020 12:25:25 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=291338 A varamdar under the Kerala Land Reforms Act, 1963 is treated as a cultivating tenant because the statutory definitions of "tenant" and "cultivating tenant," read with the deeming provisions, bring a varam arrangement within tenant status.
