Section 31A Bombay Prevention of Fragmentation Act | Finality of Consolidation Scheme Cannot Be Reopened for Substantive Errors: Bombay HC
Bombay High Court holds that Section 31A of the Bombay Prevention of Fragmentation and Consolidation of Holdings Act, 1947, is confined to correcting clerical errors and does not empower authorities to reopen consolidation schemes for substantive mistakes. The ruling reinforces the finality of revenue records post-consolidation, impacting landowners and revenue authorities in property disputes.
