Court : Kerala

..... kunhiraman, 1971 ker lt 563, which dealt with the question of construction of section 3 (1) of the kerala cultivators and tenants (temporary protection) act, 1970, applied by analogy to the construction of section 125 (3) of the kerala land reforms act, and that, therefore, a person who claimed to be a tenant or kudikidappukaran had to establish a prima facie case for invoking section 125 (3) of the act. ..... the purport and scope of section 125 of the kerala land reforms act are entirely different from that of section 3 of the kerala cultivators and tenants (temporary protection) act. ..... for this purpose we shall first quote section 3 of the kerala cultiyators and tenants (temporary) protection act. ..... to grant injunction in any suit or other proceeding referred to in sub-section (3) restraining any person from entering into or occupying or cultivating any land or kudikidappu or to appoint a receiver for any property in respect of which a question referred to in that sub-section has arisen till such question is decided 1 7 the land tribunal, and any such injunction granted or appointment made fee-fore the commencement of the kerala land reforms (amendment) act, 1969, or before such question has arisen, shall stand cancelled'. .....

Raman Ayyappan Malappurath and anr. Vs. Vadakke Madom Brahmaswam and o ...

Court : Kerala

Reported in : AIR1972Ker201

..... the only contention that was urged by counsel for the appellant was that this second appeal is liable to be stayed under section 4 of the kerala cultivators and tenants (temporary protection) act 1970 (act 20 of 1970) ..... section 3 of the said act states that from and after the commencement of the act, the jenmi shall not have any right, claim, or interest in any land in a holding except the right to receive the jenmikaram thereon and the kanam-tenant shall be deemed to be the owner of the land subject only to the payment of the jenmikaram.3. ..... turning now to the kerala land reforms act (act i of 1964) it is significant that the definition of the term 'kanam' in section 2, clause (22) of the act, expressly exempts by a proviso, kanam or any other demise governed by the kanam tenancy act, from its scope ..... 'jenmikaram' in respect of a holding or any land comprised in a holding means the amount payable in respect of that holding or land under the provisions of this act by the kanam tenant to the jenmi every year in lieu of all claims of the jenmi in respect of the holding, or land and shall be the sum total of the michavaram and the fractional fee.explanation. ..... it is so liable to be stayed, if the suit relates to recovery of arrears of rent, seems clear enough; and the contention was, that jenmikaram is 'rent' as defined by the kerala act i of 1964 as amended. ..... am of the view that jenmikaram is not rent and that this second appeal is therefore not liable to be stayed under act 20 of 1970.6. .....

Court : Kerala

Reported in : 1972CriLJ1652

..... the act itself is styled the kerala cultivators and tenants temporary protection act, 1970 'an act to provide for the stay of suits and other proceedings for determination of rights in respect of lands occupied by certain classes of persons for the temporary protection of tenants against proceedings for the recovery of arrears of rent and for matters incidental thereto' the preamble reads:whereas it is expedient to provide for the stay of suits and other proceedings for determination of rights in respect of lands occupied by certain classes of persons. ..... the purpose is certainly not to protect the tenancy rights of any of the parties; whereas the purpose of act 20/70 is to render temporary protection to tenants against proceedings for the recovery of arrears of rent and other incidental matters. ..... the expression 'any proceedings' appearing in section 3 of act 20/70 must be read as proceedings in respect of any land over which tenancy right is claimed and the tenant stands in need of a temporary protection against proceedings for the recovery of arrears of rent or other connected matters. ..... for the temporary protection of tenants against proceedings for the recovery of arrears of rent and for matters incidental thereto. ..... the learned magistrate has now stayed the entire proceedings thinking that act 20 of 1970 is applicable i think the view taken by the learned magistrate is wrong and unsustainable. .....

Appunni Vs. Nani

Court : Kerala

Reported in : AIR1973Ker281

..... it is pointed out that the object of enacting the kerala cultivators and tenants (temporary protection) act act 20 of 1970, was to afford temporary protection to the tenants, and was occasioned mostly by the striking down by this court of particular provisions of the act conferring fixity of tenure on certain classes of persons in occupation of land, and that it was rather in the nature of a stop-gap measure. ..... referring to the scope of section 3 of the cultivators and tenants (temporary protection) act. ..... this revision is by the defendant in the suit and it involves the interpretation of sub-section (3) of section 125 of the kerala land reforms act (act 1 of 1964) as amended by act 35 of 1969, hereinafter referred to as the act.2. ..... it is not open to a court or tribunal to stay the suit or proceedings the moment a statement is filed by a party thereto even though the suit or proceeding is in respect of any land without, any enquiry regarding the possession of the land which is the subject-matter of the suit and without satisfying about the conditions in section 3 (1) (a) or (1) (b) of act 20 of 1970. ..... there is therefore some ambiguity in the wording of section 3 (1) of act 20 of 1970 and a reference to the preamble or the statement to the objects and reasons can be resorted to for interpreting the said provision. .....
