Apart from its assessment and collection from landowners, land revenue system regulates different facets of agricultural sector e.g. making and maintenance of record-of-rights, hierarchy of revenue officers, land related disputes resolution mechanism, demarcation of boundaries of land, and to name a few. land being a state subject under the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution of India, every state has its own land revenue legislation, which governs almost all the aforesaid aspects with some minor variations. Notably, various provisions of our Constitution directly or indirectly dealing with this system, are interpreted by higher Indian judiciary from time to time through its landmark judgements i.e. Gajula Dasratha Rama Rao v. State of Andhra Pradesh and Others, AIR 1961 SC 564, N.M.C.S. Mills Co. Ltd. v. Ahmedabad Municipality, AIR 1967 SC 1801, His Holiness Kesavananda Bharti Sri Padagalavaru v. State of Kerala, AIR 1973 SC 1461, Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd. v. Union of India, (1996) 10 SCC 104, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd. v. Maddula Ratnavalli, (2007) 6 SCC 81, Dr. Maya D. Chablani v. Smt. Radha Mittal & Others, decided on June 24, 2021 etc. In this research paper, the researcher has made an attempt to delve into each and every point relevant to this topic. |
