|Supreme Court of India
Shamilat deh land automatically vests in Gram Panchayat under Section 2(g)(1) Punjab & Haryana Common Lands Act | SC
The Supreme Court upheld the 1955 mutation of Haiderpur land, holding that because the revenue record marks it shamilat deh, Section 2(g)(1) of the Punjab & Haryana Common Lands Act automatically vests it in the gram panchayat. The ruling overturns the High Court and confirms shamilat deh land as statutory common property, affecting owners, developers and local authorities in Haryana and Punjab.
