Raja Pratap Vikram Shah vs Kr. Upendra Bahadur Shah And Ors. on 15 September, 1951
Further more the summary settlement in Clause 1 of Section 8 is not necessarily what was spoken of on behalf of the plaintiff in the course of the arguments as 'taluqdari settlement.' The section does not speak of the latter kind of settlement. Whether, it was zemindari settlement or taluqdari settlement was immaterial. As held in the Rammau case, Janki Prasad v. Dwarka Prasad, 9 Ind. Cas. 83 (Oudh), all that mattered was that the settlement was made with a person mentioned in List 1 of the lists prepared under Section 8. It follows that Clause 2 is not necessarily confined to tahiqdars with whom a summary settlement was made before 10-10-1859. The Legislature intended to provide for two classes of cases by inserting Clause 2 as an alternative, namely (1) taluqdars to whom the altered sanad was granted, and (2) persons to whom resumed estates were given and with whom the
summary settlement was made after 10-10-1859.
