Karnataka High Court affirms that Government 'B' Kharab land is inalienable, dismissing petitions to quash FIRs under the Prevention of Corruption Act. The ruling underscores the necessity of investigation into alleged illegal conversion by public servants to uphold public trust and land revenue laws.

The Allahabad High Court has ruled that an accused cannot be arrested in a BNS case until the court takes cognizance of the police report, mandating completion of investigation within 60 days. This sets a critical pre-trial procedural safeguard for individuals facing non-bailable offenses under the new criminal code, ensuring due process before custodial action.
