Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the applicability of Order XXI Rule 90 of the Code of Civil Procedure in writ proceedings under Article 226 of the Constitution, concluding that such provisions do not apply to auction sales conducted by state revenue authorities. The Court upheld the jurisdiction of the Additional Commissioner under Section 247 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966, affirming the High Court's decision to reject the appellant's writ petitions challenging the auction sale conducted by the Tahsildar. The judgment clarified the legal framework governing auction sales under the Revenue Code and the authority of revenue officials in such matters.
