Case brief
What is this about?
Allahabad High Court PIL dismissed; Kabristan revenue entry; Khasra No. 831; Village Sahar; Tehsil Chhata; District Mathura; Suit No. 9/1986; Pargana Adhikari; unexplained delay of 37 years; maintainability of public interest litigation regarding revenue records; liberty to take appropriate legal proceedings; Arun Bhansali CJ and Kshitij Shailendra J; order dated 5.3.2025.
What did the court decide?
The Kabristan entry has existed in the revenue record since 1987; the petition disclosed no reason why the petitioner sought correction only after 37 years, and a petition in the nature of public interest based on documents relating to revenue land cannot be countenanced. ¶4
