Malakar, Mr. S. Chakraborty, Mr. A.T.H. Ahmed. ….Advocates. For the Respondents : Mr. P.S. Deka, GA, Assam. ….Advocate. BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY Date of Hearing and Judgment : 24th May, 2016 WP(C) 3586/2011 Page 1 of 6 JUDGMENT AND ORDER (ORAL) Heard Mr. B. Malakar, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners. Also heard Mr. P.S. Deka, the learned Govt. advocate representing the respondents. 2. The first two petitioners are husband and wife and the 3rd petitioner is their son. They claim to be tenants in possession of the land in Karimganj district, owned earlier by the Zamindar, Dhirendra Roy Astapati. Under the Assam State Acquisition of Zamindaris Act, 1951 (hereinafter referred to as the “Zamindari Act”), all rights and interest of the proprietor of the concerned estate, vested upon the State Government and accordingly those lands were declared to be Govt. land under the Zamindari Act. Placing reliance on Dhakhila under the Sylhet Tenancy Act, the petitioners claim tenancy rights over the Zamindar’s land. But the representation filed by the petitioners to correct the land records from Govt. khas land to the tenanted never came to be considered by the authorities. 3. Claiming to be in occupation of the acquired Zamindari land, the petitioners seek compensation for the loss suffered by them during the 2010 floods, in Karimganj district. In order to establish that they suffered flood damage, the petitioners seek direction for survey and demarcation of the land, since the natural boundaries got obliterated during the high floods. 4. Large area of lands in the North Karimganj Development Block were utilized for Acqua Culture Development under the Employment Generation Mission Scheme, but most fisheries in the area were flooded over and damaged by flood. Therefore assessment of flood damage was made by the District Fishery Development Officer, Karimganj. But since the area is shown to be Govt. khas land and others are also claiming possession of the same very land as claimed by the writ petitioners, the issue of possession has become a matter of controversy. 5. The learned counsel Mr. B. Malakar submits that although the Zamindari land was declared to be Govt. khas land under the Zamindari Act, the petitioners applied for reversion of the land to the tenants and correction of the WP(C) 3586/2011 Page 2 of 6 land records and according to the petitioners, this is a legitimate claim of the occupiers of the land. 6. But it is also seen from the writ petition itself that the petitioners not only applied for demarcation of their land, but also initiated a proceeding under Section 145 Cr.P.C. against a group of 9 persons led by Badrul Haque, which led to the registration of the Case No.217(M)/2011 in the Court of the Addl. D.M., Karimganj. On 05.05.2011 the Magistrate passed an order to attach the disputed land under Section 146 of the Cr.P.C., but in order to execute the attachment order, a further order had to be passed by the Magistrate on 09.05.2011, whereby the revenue staff as well as the BSF authorities were directed to verify the disputed land claimed by the 3rd writ petitioner Abdul Ahad Choudhury, in the Case No.217(M)/2011. 7. Mr. P.S. Deka, the learned Govt. advocate on behalf of the respondents submits that the concerned land was notified to be Govt. khas land after divesting from the Zamindar pattadar, by correction of the revenue records. Referring to the counter affidavit filed by the Circle Officer, Karimganj, Mr. Deka submits that the petitioners are not tenants under the erstwhile Zamindar, as their names have not been entered into the record of rights for the permanently settled Zamindari land. In fact, the land was earlier recorded in the name of the erstwhile Zamindar and the area is now to be treated as the Govt. khas land, as per the declaration made under the Zamindari Act. In fact, typed copy of the rent receipts annexed to the writ petition, are described to be doubtful, in the counter affidavit filed by the Circle Officer. 8. The Zamindari Act was enacted to provide for acquisition of permanently settled areas and constitutionality or legal validity of this Act cannot be questioned, under Article 31A of the Constitution. Section 3 of the Zamindari Act empowers the State Government to notify that, the right of the estate or tenure holder over Zamindari land, shall stand transferred to the State Government free from all encumbrances and the consequences of such notification are spelt out in Section 4 of the Zamindari Act. The Act specifies that all rights of the estate or the tenure holders over the land, vests absolutely in the State, but the tenants under the erstwhile proprietor can hold the land directly under the State, on the same terms. But the rent and other dues payable for the WP(C) 3586/2011 Page 3 of 6 land will henceforth be paid to the State Government, under sub-section (6) of Section 4 of the Zamindari Act. 9. From the representation filed by the 3rd petitioner on 19.06.2008 (page-35) for correction of the land records after the Zamindari land was declared to be Govt. khas land, it can be gathered that the applicant’s name is not recorded as a tenant of the erstwhile Zamindar. The declaration of Govt. khas land was made in respect of the Zamindari land in the year 1967-68 itself and the averments of the Circle Officer in the counter affidavit being relevant on this aspect, are extracted herein below for ready reference:- “…………. 4. That with regard to the statements made in paragraph 2 of the writ petition, the deponent states that the Record of Right in respect of permanently settled Estate areas of Karimganj Sub-Division (now district) was prepared and finally published in the year 1967-68. So, Zamindary records of pre-settlement i.e. Zamindary taluk No. Zamindary Patta No. as mentioned by the petitioner are not available in the office of the deponent. 5. That with regard to the statements made in paragraphs 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the writ petition, the deponent begs to state that the petitioners were not tenant, as such their name has not been recorded in the Record of Right in respect of land mentioned in the paragraphs of permanently settled Estate areas of Karimganj District during the preparation of Record of Right operation which was finally published in the year 1967- 68 as per provision of Sylhet Tenancy Act, 1936. The above land was recorded in the name of Ex-Proprietor and Govt. khas and also Khatian was issued in the name of individuals. The copy of Farog i.e. rent receipt issued by the Zamindar as annexed by the petitioner is doubtful. Some land recorded as P.W.D. Road and River etc. Tenancy claimed by the petitioner over P.W.D. land and river does not arise as per Tenancy Act. The name of the mouja mentioned in the plaints of the above W.P.(C) is Gandhak, Pargana Kushiarkul. But the re-surveyed name of the Mouza is Gandhak Bahubal, Pargana Kushirkul. ………….. 7. That with regard to the statements made in paragraph 8 of the writ petition, the deponent states that in the plaint of above writ petition the name of Mouza is mentioned as Mouza Kuriala but practically there is no Mouza named Kuriala under Karimganj Circle area. ……………” 10. The concerned lands in the Kushiarkul and Sadimapur Pargana comprised within Sutarkandi and Jarua Mouza, are shown in the revenue records WP(C) 3586/2011 Page 4 of 6 as Govt. khas lands and importantly in the revenue records annexed to the counter affidavit, there is no mention of the names of the tenants. That is why the petitioners applied for correction of the land records when the concerned Zamindari land vested absolutely upon the State Government, under the Zamindari Act. 11. In order to make a legitimate claim for compensation as flood victims, it is necessary for the claimants to establish a legal right over the flood damaged land. But admittedly the concerned land is reflected as Govt. land after the tenure holders’ right got transferred to the Government, under the Zamindari Act. Moreover the claim of being a tenant under the Zamindars is strongly disputed as the land records do not reflect any tenant’s name for the acquired land. Even the possession claimed by the petitioners is contested, as can be seen from the case filed by the petitioners against Badrul Haque and 8 others, which led to the registration of the Case No.217(M)/2011, under Section 145 of the Cr.P.C.

Website: www.thecho.in Political Phenomena in Barak-Surma Valley during Medieval Period Dr. Sahabuddin Ahmed Associate Professor, Dept. of History, Karimganj College, Karimganj, Assam Email: [email protected] Abstract After the fall of Srihattarajya in 12 th century CE, marked the beginning of the medieval history of Barak-Surma Valley. The political phenomena changed the entire infrastructure of the region. But the socio-cultural changes which occurred are not the result of the political phenomena, some extra forces might be alive that brought the region to undergo changes. By the advent of the Sufi saint Hazrat Shah Jalal, a qualitative change was brought in the region. This historical event caused the extension of the grip of Bengal Sultanate over the region. Owing to political phenomena, the upper valley and lower valley may differ during the period but the socio- economic and cultural history bear testimony to the fact that both the regions were inhabited by the same people with a common heritage. And thus when the British annexed the valley in two phases, the region found no difficulty in adjusting with the new situation. Keywords: Homogeneity, aryanisation, autonomy. The geographical area that forms the Barak- what Nihar Ranjan Roy prefers in his Surma valley, extends over a region now Bangalir Itihas (3rd edition, Vol.-I, 1980, divided between India and Bangladesh. The Calcutta). Indian portion of the region is now In addition to geographical location popularly known as Barak Valley, covering this appellation bears a historical the geographical area of the modern districts significance.

    F.No.3/3/2009-PP-I GOVERNMENT OF INDIA MINISTRY OF MINORITY AFFAIRS MINUTES OF THE 14th MEETING OF THE EMPOWERED COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER AND APPROVE THE MULTI-SECTORAL DEVELOPMENT PLANS FOR MINORITY CONCENTRATION DISTRICTS HELD AT 10.30 A.M. ON 8TH JUNE, 2009 UNDER THE CHAIRMANSHIP OF SECRETARY, MINISTRY OF MINORITY AFFAIRS A list of members and officials present in the meeting is annexed. 2. The Chairman of the Empowered Committee explained the background for identification of minority concentration districts (MCDs) and the scheme of a multi-sectoral development programme (MsDP) designed to address the development deficits of such districts. The Chairman pointed out that the baseline survey not only brought out the updated position in respect of the relevant parameters used for identification of such districts, but also ranked the deficits in order of the extent of deprivation in the districts. It was expected that the plans submitted by the State Governments would address the deficits in order of priority. In case a deficit, ranked higher in the order of deprivation, was not proposed to be addressed by the plan, it would be incumbent on the part of the District Level Committee and the State Level Committee to bring out the reasons for not doing so. The Chairman stressed that the primary objective of this programme was to address the identified development deficits, so that the various interventions would result in the improvement of the backwardness parameters of a minority concentration district and bring it at par with the national average. 3. The Chairman stated that the fact that these districts were not just MCDs, having a substantial minority population, but were also districts comprising of other communities who suffer from the same backwardness and deprivation should not be lost sight of.
