Babar Shah Alias Ali Bahadur Shah Vs. Muhammad Rafiq and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-04-1921

Reported in: 62Ind.Cas.35

1. This is a plaintiff's appeal, arising out of a suit for a declaration that the property in dispute is waqf property and that he is in charge of it as mutwalli. The plaintiff came into Court on the allegation that the disputed property appertained to the takia and qabrittan of Barah Shah Safa. That the defendants were wrongfully interfering with the plaintiff's possession as mutwalli and that the property had been attached under Section 145 of the Code of Criminal Procedure. There were several defendants to the suit, some of whom pleaded that they had no concern with the property at all. All of them denied that the plaintiff was the mutwalli of the property or that he was the legal representative of the last mutwalli. Defendants Nos. 4 to 6 further pleaded that they were in possession of two-thirds of the property as mutwallis themselves. Three of the defendants also pleaded that the value of the property had been grossly exaggerated and that it was not worth more than Rs. 1.000, the...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-02-1921

Reported in: (1921)ILR43All615

Walsh and Wallach, JJ.1. The plaintiffs in this case sue for a declaration that they are in possession of plot No. 351 in mauza Sukhpura and that they are the muafidars of that holding. In the alternative they sue for possession. At the last settlement in the year 1883 the plot was entered as the fixed rate tenancy of defendants Nos. 1 to 9, who sold their rights and title in the plot to defendant No. 10, who resisted the suit and is appellant in this Court. The plaintiffs had applied in the Revenue Courts to have the entry altered, but were unsuccessful. Both the lower courts held that as a matter of fact the entry in the year 1883 was due to a mistake and they further held that they were not prevented by Section 9 of the Tenancy Act from going into this matter. They based their decision on the ruling in the case of Jai Nath Pathak v. Kalka Upadhya (1912) I.L.R. 34 All. 285. Section 9 lays down that every entry at the last revision of records before the commencement of this Act, recor...

Sundar Bibi Vs. Raj Indra NaraIn Singh

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-02-1921

Reported in: (1921)ILR43All617

Walsh and Wallach, JJ.1. The question which arises in this case is whether a particular fund payable to a judgment-debtor under a compromise arrived at in a suit many years ago between himself and his brother, is protected from attachment by Clause (n) of Section 60 of the Code of Civil Procedure; or, in other words, whether it is a right to future maintenance. The decree-holder, who appears to be a money-lender, has a claim of some Rs. 26,000 odd, and in his original application sought to sell up the property shortly to be referred to. That he is clearly not entitled to do, with one exception, namely, the residence which will be mentioned in a moment. It is not easy to define in legal terminology the precise interest of the judgment-debtor, Raj Indar Naraian Singh, in the fund provided by this compromise. Perhaps the nearest definition would be that he is an annuitant subject to certain defined charges, with a reversionary interest in the corpus upon the death of his brother, Lal Baha...

The defendants to the suit were persons who same under that Act. They were in debt and took refuge under the Ant and were declared disabled proprietors. The plaintiffs were the sole creditors. The matter went before the Special Judge under the Act and the Special Judge made an award.
