Cited by
We found no other Supreme Court judgment we hold that cites this one.
Counted only in the Supreme Court judgments we hold whose text we could read, not in High Court judgments. We match each citation to a judgment automatically, so a citation we cannot match is not counted. "Cited" says only that a judgment refers to this one, not whether it followed, distinguished or overruled it.
The Court's text
Paragraphs from our copy of the Supreme Court Reports print, with the Court's own paragraph numbers, the printed page and, where printed, the margin letter. The Court did not number this judgment's paragraphs, so they are listed by page. Link to paragraph N with #para-N.
Leave granted.
p. 747, margin A
With regard to the lands covered by the sale deed dated October 16, 1971, pursuant to our directions dated 14.8.1995, the respondent has filed documents to establish that he was under compelling necessity to sell the land to discharge the loans taken from the Andhra Bank since the Bank was proceeding against his property for recovering dues payable to the Bank. Therefore, we find that the sale dated October 16, 1971 was not intended to defeat the provisions of the Andhra Pradesh Land Reforms (Ceiling on Agricultural Holdings) Act, 1973. But with regard to the lands covered by the two agreements of sale, in view of the judgment of the Constitution Bench of. this Court and also an earlier judgment, the lands covered under those agreements shall be included in the holding of the purchaser as well as the owner as agreement of sale does not divest the rights in the land. The computation shall be made accordingly.
