Case Law Analysis
|Chhattisgarh High Court
Full enquiry mandatory under Section 170-B for tribal land restoration | Chhattisgarh Land Revenue Code, 1959 : CG HC
The High Court ruled that any order restoring tribal land must be based on a full enquiry under Section 170-B, not merely on pre-1959 revenue records or the absence of a registered deed. This safeguards tribal claimants by ensuring proper verification of possession before title is reinstated.
