Parmatma Prasad and Others v. Dy.Director of Consolidation and Others
Case brief
What is this about?
A writ petitioner challenged the finding of lower authorities that an unregistered agr agreement dated 14.10.1974, allegedly executed by Ram Newaj, was invalid because the executor was dead. The Court rejected the claim that revenue records were erroneous and held that the typed death certificate was a reliable public document. Consequently, the writ petition was dismissed upholding the invalidity of the agreement based on the executor's death.
What did the court decide?
Writ petition dismissed; impugned orders upheld; invalidity of the agreement confirmed due to death of executor prior to execution.
