Section 5 West Bengal Thika Tenancy Act | Pleadings Must Allege Statutory Vesting Facts to Challenge Registered Sale Deed : Calcutta HC
Calcutta High Court rules that a mere reference to 'thika property' in pleadings is insufficient to trigger vesting under the 1981 Act. The defendant must specifically allege facts meeting the statutory definition of thika tenancy to challenge a registered sale deed, failing which the sale remains valid.
