CHAMPALAL Vs. RAMESHWAR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is a revision application by the defendants against an order of the Civil Judge, Pali, holding that a sale-deed executed by the Chairman, Municipal Board, Pali, for Rs. 99/- in favour of the plaintiff is not inadmissible in evidence for want of registration, because the provisions of the Transfer of Property Act do not apply to it as it is a transfer covered by sec. 2 of the Government Grants Act, 1895. The revision application has been opposed on behalf of the plaintiff.

(2.) THE first contention on behalf of applicants is that the Government Grants Act, 1895 is no longer applicable to Rajasthan. Sec. 1 (2) of the Act as it stands today reads as follows : "it extends to the whole of India except the territories which immediately before 1. 11. 56 were comprised in Part B States. "

(3.) I am accordingly of the opinion that the decision of the court below is correct and dismiss the revision application. In the circumstances of the case, I leave the parties to bear their own costs of it. .
