The Flaw in the Law- Part 33
Right at this point of time 2100 hours of 18.07.2010, a property law related programme is going on a popular Tamil Channel. Public are making property related queries to an expert in property law.
Few minutes ago, two citizens made the following query:
What are the procedures to follow in order to ascertain that the land one proposes to buy is perfectly encubrance free and clear to buy?
Answer from the expert: Check the parent deed and check whether the land is in the vendor's possession. If the two are clear, apply for an EC with the SRO. If the SRO issues a Nil encumbrance certificate, then you can go ahead to buy such land.
This is how exactly the 500 people bought lands (as described in part 1 of the presentation) and only such lands are now claimed after 17 years by the beneficiary of the LA that those lands are notified under LA.
High Courts and the Supreme Court have declared void, alienations made the way the legal expert recommended a few minutes ago on that TV Channel.
This TV programme itself proof of the flaw in the law and proof of the failure of the govt in not amending the LA Act, 1894 in the last 116 years to the effect of prescribing for the compulsory registrability of notification u/s 4(1) of the LA Act,1894.
