Court index description
The High Court Division as well as this Division inaccurately decided that after the enforcement of the State Acquisition of Tenancy Act, 1950, there established a land lord and tenant relationship between the Government and the plaintiffs. For the establishment of a land lord and tenant nexus linking the Government and the ancestor of the plaintiffs there should exists a lawful affiliation between them prior to the enactment. In our opinion the plaintiffs’ side was not able to set up such a tie.
