10. Further, reliance is placed on the judgment of
this Court in the case of Smt. Narasamma & Ors. v.
K.V. Ramprasad (W.P. No. 12971/2012 & connected
petitions) disposed of on 10.07.2012 wherein it is held
that an agreement which is contrary to law or public
policy cannot be enforced and in that regard, this Court
while considering Section 23 of the Contract Act had
arrived at such conclusion. In the instant case, the
learned counsel for the respondents contend that the
land in question were agricultural land and therefore any
agreement entered into would be contrary to Sections 79
