Jairam and Another – Appellant
Versus
Additional Commissioner (ADMN. ), Faizabad Division and Others – Respondent
Key Points: - The mutation proceedings cannot be stayed during pendency of another mutation case at the revisional stage; status quo does not stay subsequent mutation proceedings [25000741850010][25000741850012] - Mutation entry does not confer title; the person recorded is liable to pay land revenue [25000741850008] - Proceedings under Section 34 of the U.P.
