Judgment text excerpt

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 found that the provisions serve a beneficial purpose in agrarian reform and do not violate constitutional rights. The appeals challenging the resolution dated 4.7.2008 and the minimum valuation of land were dismissed, affirming the earlier judgments of the Gujarat High Court.
