Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Jan-28-1964

Reported in: AIR1967All398

ORDERS.C. Manchanda, J.1. On a difference of opinion this case has been referred to me. The question that was framed by the Supreme Court and which was ultimately directed by the High Court to be referred was--'Whether on the materials on record the Board of Revenue could say that there was evidence to show that there was no partition of the family 'in point of fact'2. The words underlined (here in ' ') are mainly responsible for the difference of opinion. These words have been interpreted by the learned Chief Justice to mean that the High Court was only required to determine the factual position as to whether there was any material for the Board of Revenue to hold that there was no separation in fact between the members of that family, and the legal position of partition under the Hindu Law was intended by the. Supreme Court to be completely ignored.3. The existence of the following circumstances (1) the absence of any necessity for separation, common management of property by one per...
