For example, one source notes that Section 12 preserves the right of employees to avail better leave terms than what are provided in the Act ["2025 Supreme(Online)(KER) 8990"]. Another highlights that arrangements for annual leave could lawfully be made wherein FIFO workers use their annual leave in their paid off-duty periods ["2023 Supreme(AUS)(FWC) 22877"], indicating that leave policies can be flexible and subject to specific agreements or regulations. In judicial rulings, courts have examined the admissibility of confessional statements under S92, with one holding that the learned Sessions Judge was in error in ruling out the confessional statement of appellant Shyam Keot, under Section 164, Criminal P. C, as inadmissible ["1950 0 Supreme(Ori) 44"].

To my mind the ruling relevant on the point would be the ruling in kedar v. District Judge, 1978 RD 307 : 1978 ALJ 836. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner on this point is devoid of merits. " The aforesaid judgment does not lay down any proposition that any instrument which purports to transfer of rights in Immovable property even if it does not comply with the requirement of registration Act, will be deemed to be valid for purpose of Section 164, rather The aforesaid ruling dealt with usufructuary mortgage of bhumidhari land.
In that case this Court had allowed the appeal and ordered for return of the plaint for presentation to Revenue Court after making necessary amendments. Bhaiya Lal, that the suit for possession of bhumidhari land is of description falling under Section 209 Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act, is barred under Section 331 of Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act and hence Civil Court has no jurisdiction. The aforesaid ruling and law propounded by Honble Supreme Court has been followed by this Court in the ruling reported in 1978 ALJ 1273, Kishori Lalv.

No.4688 of 1978, was preferred before the Supreme Court, which was also dismissed.” It is clear from the above that the learned Judge was not made aware of the decision in A.S.No.884 of 1979 reported in Manjammal v.
