16. It is settled law that the Collector is not bound to take any reference under Section 30 of the Act even when so applied for. The Collector has the jurisdiction to go into even the disputed questions of title and resolve the same. In a given case, the Collector may decline to go into such disputed questions and refer the dispute to the civil Court under Sections 18 and 30 of the Act for determining the extent of land acquired and the amount of compensation to be awarded thereof and to whom such amount is liable to be paid. May be, the Collector would be well advised to refer the disputed questions of title, if they involve making of enquiry into complicated questions of fact and law, to the civil Court; but, that is a matter which is left to the discretion of the Collector as the statute has clothed him with jurisdiction to elect either to decide such question or refer the same for decision by the civil Court.
