Headnote | Maharashtra Agricultural Land (Ceiling on Holdings) Act, 1961-Section 45 (2 )-Hindu-lnheriting land as nephew-Natural father having become uncle in adoption-Such land-Whether separate or ancestral--Computation A B of surplus land. Hindu Law Joint family-Blending of separate property--Proof of-Necessity of evidence for. The appellant was taken in adoption in the family of his uncle. On adoption, he got about 28 acres of agricultural land from the adoptive family. He also inherited land admeasuring 19 acres and 19-1/2 gunthas from his natural father, who died leaving behind no other heir. The Commissioner, exercising power under Section 45(2) of the Maharashtra Agricultural Land (Ceiling on Holdings) Act, 1961, came to the conclusion that the land inherited by the appellant was a separate property and could not be characterised as ancestral property. The Commissioner, further took the view that since the land inherited by the appellant could not be described as ancestral property, the appellant's major son's share could not be deducted therefrom, and hence the surplus had to be worked out without making any such deduction. These views were confirmed by the High Court in a Writ Petition brought under Article 227 of the Constitution. The contention that the inherited property blended with the ancestral property and hence it had acquired the character of an ancestral property was rejected. Aggrieved, the appellant appealed to this Court which granted special leave confining it to the question of blending. |
