Section 12: Power to refer question to High Court

The Rajasthan Land Revenue Act, 1956

How current this text is

Text as published by India Code for the Government of Rajasthan (the "updated" English file), with amendments up to Rajasthan Act No. 9 of 2022.

A Rajasthan Land Revenue (Amendment and Validation) Bill, 2025 (Bill No. 7 of 2025) inserts section 100-A (Government land placed at the disposal of RIICO for industrial areas) and clause (xvii-a) in section 261(2). Its Act number and assent could not be confirmed from an official source; these changes are not shown in this text.

This copy does not print the Chapter headings of the Act and contains many typing errors (for example "swim partition" and "audible estate" in section 186); the text is reproduced as printed.

(1) If any case it appears to a Bench that any such question as is referred to in Section 11 is of public importance and that it is expedient to obtain the opinion of the High Court thereon, the Bench may refer the question to that Court.

(2) The High Court may, after such hearing as it thinks fit, record opinion on the question so referred and the decision of the case shall be in confirmity with such opinion.
