Arokia Manuvel Rajan, v. the District Revenue Officer
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court set aside a remand order issued by a District Revenue Officer regarding a tenure matter. The Court held that since two civil suits are pending between the parties concerning the same property, the validity of a registered sale deed cannot be determined by revenue authorities. The writ petition was allowed.
What did the court decide?
The impugned order remitting the matter to the second respondent was set aside. The parties are allowed to plead before the concerned Civil Court where suits are pending.
