# Allahabad High Court Orders Full Review of Land Records 2026-08-15T10:05:35+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Allahabad High Court has ruled that land claims under Section 229B of the Uttar Pradesh Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act must be decided by examining the complete chain of revenue records, not one isolated entry. Justice Arun Kumar set aside findings against Kanti Kumar, whose family received agricultural land after their village was acquired for defence use. The court said continuous Khatauni entries across several Faslis could not be ignored unless cancelled by a competent authority or proved fictitious. It also held that a partition decree could not be rejected merely because another allottee was not a party, without evidence that the allottee’s land formed part of Kumar’s share. Proceedings under Section 145 of the CrPC determine possession, not title or tenancy rights. ## Coverage - livelaw.in Tags: Allahabad High Court, Jhansi, Kanti Kumar, Uttar Pradesh Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/allahabad-high-court-orders-full-review-of-land-records/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
