Absence of proviso successful the bundle to incorporated civilian court’s decrees undermines the finality of tribunal decrees and runs antagonistic to the intent of Sections 128 and 135 of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964, which mandate that gross records beryllium amended successful conformity with judicial declarations, the High Court pointed out.
Without delay
