Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jun-22-1999

Reported in: AIR2000Guj30; (1999)3GLR2092

ORDERY.B. Bhatt, J.1. This group of petitions can be disposed of by a common judgment and order inasmuch as there is a common question of law involved. The facts so far as they are relevant and pertinent to the application of the law on the subject are of almost nosignificance.2. These are petitions filed by the State of Gujarat under Article 227 of the Constitution of India challenging the orders passed by the Gujarat Revenue Tribunal in different revision applications. However, all matters have a common root. It appears that the respondents in these group of petitions (the petitioners in revisions before the Gujarat Revenue Tribunal) are holders of agricultural land who have acquired such lands by appropriate transfers in their favour, and the mutation entries in their favour have been certified by the competent authority under the Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act.3. After a, long period of time, after the mutation entries in favour of the holders were certified, it appeared...

K.M. Kakasania Vs. Secretary

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jun-22-1999

Reported in: (1999)3GLR475

S.K. Keshote, J.1. This is clearly a litigation which otherwise would have been avoidable in case the respondents No.1, 2, 3 and 5 would have acted reasonably, fairly and in consonance with the principles of fairplay. It is not gainsay that because of inaction or omission or causal approach on the part of the functionaries and officers of the State of Gujarat, a Welfare State, numerous litigations are coming up before this court though otherwise those would have been avoidable litigations. This Court is already facing the problem to reduce the mounting arrears of pending cases. The State of Gujarat its functionaries and officers instead of giving their fullest cooperation to the Court to overcome this problem are in fact adding further litigations, which is clearly reflecting from this case. The worse part is that the respondents aforesaid have not even cared to file reply to the special civil application. Not only this, nobody is present on their behalf to make oral submissions also. ...
