ORDER GAD/74/62/13598: Whereas the rents of the paddy fields belonging to “Comunidades” and “Mazanias” and leased by public auction have, in many cases, exceeded a just and equitable ceiling. And whereas it is necessary and expedient to give relief to the direct cultivator in relation to the rents payable by him so that such rents do not exceed 50% of the average annual produce. Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred upon me by clause 2 of the Goa, Daman and Diu (Administration) Removal of Difficulties Order, 1962, and notwithstanding anything contained in any law for the time being in force within this Territory I hereby make the following Order: In all cases in which the annual rent of paddy field belonging to the “Comunidades” or “Mazanias” exceeds 50% of the assessment as per the schedule of assessment (calculo) already made according to law, the “Comunidade” or “Mazanias” as the case may be, shall not collect any rent in excess of 50% of the annual gross produce as per assessment.
