Section 20-A: Revenue Appellate Authority

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(1) The State Government may appoint such number of officers, not being less than three, as may be found necessary to receive, hear and dispose of appeals, revisions and references in revenue judicial cases and other matters specifically provided for by law.

(2) Every officer so appointed shall be designated as Revenue Appellate Authority and shall, for exercise of his jurisdiction and the performance of his duties, sit at such place or places as the State Government may from time to time direct.]
