The M.P. Jagir Land Records Management (Validation) Act, 1961

General19614 sections

This Act validates administrative decisions, appointments, and fees collected by the Madhya Pradesh government under a previous land records law from 1949. It applies to government officials, landowners, and courts within Madhya Pradesh. The law matters because it retroactively corrects a technical legal loophole, ensuring that past land record management actions are legally secure even if the original law was not technically in force when those actions occurred. By preventing individuals from challenging these past state actions in court, it maintains administrative stability and resolves legal doubts surrounding the legacy of jagir land ownership records in the state.
