Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-30-1962

Reported in: AIR1965MP237; 1965MPLJ238

Newaskar, J.1. The question referred to the Full Bench is, whether it is competent for the Board of Revenue to revise an order passed by the Collector in exercise of his appellate powers under Section 28 of the Abolition of Jagirs Act. A Division Bench of this Court in Bondar v. Ganpat, 1960 MP LJ 1278 had taken the view that notwithstanding the provision in Section 28 referred to above the Collector's decision is open to revision by the Board of Revenue. This question again came up for consideration before the Division Bench consisting of myself and Krishnan, J. It was contended before us that although in the absence of any statutory provision the principle laid down in the case of National Telephone Co. Ltd. v. Post Master General, (1913) A. C. 546 and approved by the Supreme Court in AIR 1953 SC 357, National Sewing Thread Co. Ltd. v. James Chadwick and Bros., Ltd. will apply. Section 34 (2) of the Madhya Bharat Abolition of Jagirs Act clearly negatives such power of revision in the...

Ramchndra S/O Deodutt Choubey and ors. Vs. the State of Madhya Pradesh

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-23-1962

Reported in: 1963CriLJ684

Shiv Dayal, J.1.This is an application under Section 526 Criminal Procedure Code, for transfer of Criminal Case No. 141 of 1961, pending in the Court of Shri R.S. Baipal, Magistrate, First Class, Baikunthpur.2. The only ground urged before me is that the collector, who is also the District Magistrate, is unduly interested in this case. It is said that there is a controversy Between different executive authorities as to the advisability of the prosecution. The petitioners say that they have an apprehension in their minds that the trial Magistrate, who is in a way subordinate to the District Magistrate, would be influenced by the latter.3. All that emerges from the material placed before me is that the opinion of the Revenue Authorities is a. variance with that of the Forest Department as to the advisability of this prosecution. That can hardly be a ground for transfer. No official, howsoever high he may be and whatever his attitude may be in his executive capacity, can influence a judic...

This was not disputed.

He relies upon the decision, reported in Pitam Lal v. Balwant Singh, AIR 1925 All 556 and Munnuswami v. Hussain Khan Sahib, AIR 1926 Mad 516 in support of his contention.2. Mr. Chafekar, who appears for the applicant, howe...

ORDERH.R. Krishnan, J.1. This is an application by the Nawab of Jaora a ruling prince, who is the de facto complainant in a criminal case before the Magistrate, Jaora, (against one Sagarmal Mahajan) actually filed by his mukhtar-am or agent. The Nawab wanted to examine himself as a witness which is in his own interest. However, he simultaneously insisted that he was a 'privileged person' exempt as of right from personal attendance as a witness in a criminal Court, and should be examined on commission in the manner provided in Section 503 Criminal Procedure Code at his own residence. The learned Magistrate having heard both the parties, felt that on grounds of reasonableness and justice, there was no case for action under Section 503 Criminal Procedure Code; if the Nawab wanted to examine himself as a witness in support of his own complaint, he should come to the Court like any other witness. On the legal aspect of the matter the Magistrate felt that there was nothing in the law, that i...
