THE STATE OF MADHYA PRADESH vs SABAL SINGH (DEAD) BY LRS

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether land recorded as 'Grass' can be classified as khudkasht land of an Ex-Zamindar under the Madhya Pradesh Land Revenue Code, 1959. The Court held that the plaintiffs, as successors of the Ex-Zamindar, acquired Bhumiswami rights over the land, which was deemed to be under personal cultivation, thus not vesting in the State. The Court affirmed the High Court's decision to grant a permanent injunction against the State's dispossession actions, reversing the lower courts' findings.
