JAGDAMBA PRASAD MISRA Vs. RAFIUDDIN AND ORS.

JUDGEMENT

(1.) In this special appeal which is directed against the judgment of R.N. Sharma, J. dated January 25, 1965 the following two submissions have been made before us:

(2.) That the name of the Appellant having been recorded as Sirdar in the compensation statement prepared under Sec. 240 -D of the U.P. Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act (hereinafter referred to as the U.P.Z.A. and L.R. Act) and no objection having been filed the same became final under Sec. 240 -J of the UP ZA and LR Act. The consolidation authorities were therefore precluded from going into that question and holding that not the Appellant but the Respondent was the Sirdar of the land in dispute. No other submission has been made before us. We proceed to consider the submissions seriatim.

(3.) From this provision also it follows that compensation statement is prepared only for the purpose of paying compensation to the landlord.
