Gohil Jesangbhai Raysangbhai & Ors vs State Of Gujarat & Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the validity of Section 43 of the Gujarat Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, 1948, which imposes restrictions on the transfer of land purchased under the Act. The Court affirmed the legality of a government resolution fixing premiums for converting agricultural land to non-agricultural use and the minimum valuation rates established in the 'Jantri' list. The Court dismissed the Civil Appeals challenging these provisions, reinforcing the Act's purpose as beneficial legislation for agrarian reform.
