A registered Will executed by a tribal cannot be enforced without prior permission from the Collector under Section 73AA of the Land Revenue Code, and failure to obtain probate invalidates the claim.
A Will executed by a tribal law owner does not require Collector's permission for validity under land transfer laws.
The court ruled that tenancy rights cannot be transferred by Will within ten years from acquisition under the MTAL Act, ensuring protection against alienation to non-legal heirs.
Cultivating tenancies under Tamil Nadu law are not transferable, and a tenant must contribute physical labor to qualify as a statutory tenant.
Agreements to sell land under the Gujarat Tenancy Act, 1948, without prior Collector approval are invalid and unenforceable, making related suits for specific performance unmaintainable.
