What is this about?
Writ petitions challenged show-cause notices issued under Section 91 of the Rajasthan Land Revenue Act, 1956 by the Assistant Conservator of Forest calling upon villagers to explain why they should not be dispossessed from allegedly encroached forest land. The court declined to keep the petitions pending and directed the authorities to decide on the petitioners' replies with a speaking order.
