1. (1) This Act may be called the Rajasthan Sub - Grants Resumption Validation Act, 1959. (2) It extends to the whole of the pre-reorganisation State of Rajasthan except the Sironj area.

The provisions of this Act shall apply to such chakrana muafi sub-grants as have, before the commencement to this Act, been resumed under the Rajasthan Land Reforms and Resumption of Jagirs Act, 1952 (Rajasthan Act 6 of 1952), hereinafter referred to as the Resumption Act, along with the jagir lands of the jagirdars from or under whom such sub-grants were held, such jagirdars being hereinafter referred to as the principal Jagirdars, without treating the holders of the said sub-grants as separate jagirdars and without awarding to the latter compensation, accompanied with or without rehabilitation grant, according to law.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the Resumption Act and notwithstanding any want or defect of form, jurisdiction, procedure or authority, all sub-grants to which the provisions of this Act apply shall be deemed to have been lawfully and validly resumed, even though they could not be so resumed in pursuance of the notifications issued by the State Government under section 21 of the Resumption Act for the resumption of the jagir lands of the principal jagirdars, as if such notifications also applied to the said sub-grants.

1. (1) Notwithstanding that compensation, with or without rehabilitation grant, in respect of a sub-grant to which the provisions of this Act apply, shall have been awarded and is being paid, to the principal jagirdar, every holder of such sub-grant shall be awarded compensation, accompanied with or without rehabilitation grant, calculated in accordance with the provisions of the Resumption Act, and the amount thereof shall be paid to him in the manner laid down in sub-section (2). (2) The Jagir Commissioner shall determine the amount of compensation, accompanied with or without rehabilitation grant payable to such sub-grantee under and in accordance with the provisions of the Resumption Act as if the resumption of his sub-grant had taken place on the date on which it was actually resumed. The amount so determined shall be paid partly out of the compensation to be paid or being paid to his principal jagirdar and partly by the State Government in the prescribed manner.

The State Government may make rules for the purpose of carrying into effect the provisions of this Act.
