GENDKANWAR Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is an appeal u|s 39 of the Rajasthan Land Reforms and Resumption of Jagirs Act, 1952 against the order of the Deputy Collector, Jagir, Chittorgarh, dated the 24th April, 1959, by which he has rejected the claim of the appellants for being recognised as the sub-grantee of the jagir Achlawda.

(2.) THE brief facts of the case are that the jagir of Achlawda was resumed from the possession of Bhawani Singh Jagirdar, who had distributed his jagir after 1949 amongst his married daughters and wife. THE appellants are the two married daughters of the jagirdar. THE jagirdar had admittedly no male issue. THE question, therefore, arose whether he had not so distributed the jagir with view to get more amount of compensation and the Sub-grants which were may not hit by Sec. 26 (a) of the Rajasthan Land Reforms and Resumption of Jagirs Act. THE learned Deputy Collector, Jagir came to the conclusion that sub-grants had been made not in the normal course, of the management of the jagir, but in an unusual manner in anticipation of the resumption thereof and could not, therefore, be allowed to be recognised.
