Reported in: AIR1963Guj175; (1963)GLR609

ORDERV.B. Raju, J. 1. In a Land Acquisition Case a reference was made by the Collector to the District Court at Bhuj. The learned District Judge rejected the reference holding that it was barred by time and that that was not a valid reference. He, therefore, refused to hear the reference and hence this revision application. It is contended by-the learned counsel for the applicant that once a reference is made by a Collector under Section 19 of the Land Acquisition Act to the District Court, the District Court has no-jurisdiction to decide whether the reference is within limitation or whether the reference was in conformity with the provisions of Section 18 of the Land Acquisition Act.2. In support of this contention, the learned counsal for the applicant relies on Hari Krishan v. State of pepsu; , Venkateswaraswami v. Sub-Collector, Pezwada, AIR 1943 Mad 327, Secretary of State v. Bhag-wan Prasao : AIR1929All769 , and Secretary of State v. Bhagwan Prasad : AIR1932All597 . But the learn...

ORDERV.B. Raju, J. 1.

There is no dispute that the respondent Sardar Sajjadanashin Saiyed Mahomed Bakar-el-Edrus, who is the common respondent in both the appeals, is the inamdar of the village Orma situated in the district of Surat, with which village we are concerned in these two appeals. There is also no dispute that the plaintiffs or their predecessors were, at all material times, the cultivators of various fields in village.
