  1. Question 1 · Uttar Pradesh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    In Jitendra Singh v. State of Madhya Pradesh (2021), the Supreme Court held that a mutation entry in the revenue record

    1. A. confers title once it has remained unchallenged for a period of twelve years
    2. B. creates no right, title or interest and is only for fiscal purposes
    3. C. creates title in favour of the legatee named in a registered will
    4. D. is conclusive proof of title unless it is set aside in an appeal
    Show the answer

    B. creates no right, title or interest and is only for fiscal purposes

    The Court, following Balwant Singh v. Daulat Singh (1997) and Suraj Bhan v. Financial Commissioner (2007), held that mutation entries are only for fiscal purposes and a title dispute must be decided by a competent court. Under the UP Code too, Section 39 keeps the remedy of a declaratory suit under Section 144 open, and Section 40 makes khatauni entries only a rebuttable presumption.

    Section 30 provides for the map and field book (khasra), Section 31 for the record of rights (khatauni), Section 41(2) describes the Kisan Bahi as a consolidated pass-book, and Section 29 requires the Collector's register of villages showing areas liable to fluvial action.

  3. Question 3 · Uttar Pradesh Local Laws Practice Set 1

    Consider the following statements under the Uttar Pradesh Revenue Code, 2006: 1. The right to the fruits of a fruit-bearing tree planted beside a public road with permission under Section 57 is heritable and includes the corpus of the tree. 2. Trees existing on the boundary of holdings are deemed to belong jointly to the holders on either side of that boundary. 3. Trees existing on a holding are deemed, subject to the Code and other laws, to belong to the person who holds the holding. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

    1. A. 1, 2 and 3
    2. B. 3 only
    3. C. 2 and 3 only
    4. D. 1 and 2 only
    Show the answer

    C. 2 and 3 only

    Sections 56(1) and 56(2) vest trees on a holding in its holder and trees on a boundary jointly in the holders on either side. Statement 1 is wrong: Section 57(3) makes the right heritable but gives no right to the corpus of the tree or to the land.

    3. C. The wife of the tenure-holder who is not judicially separated
    4. D. A minor son of the tenure-holder

    Section 4(10) defines 'family' as the tenure-holder, the spouse (other than a judicially separated spouse), minor sons and minor daughters other than married daughters, and third gender minor issue. A married daughter is expressly left out.

  5. Question 5 · Uttar Pradesh Local Laws Practice Set 1
