Analysis and Conclusion:
Section 155 of the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code, 1966, provides a clear legal framework for correcting clerical errors in land revenue records. These corrections are limited to clerical, typographical, or arithmetical mistakes and require proper application and procedural adherence. The authorities empowered under the Code, including the Collector and Divisional Commissioner, have the jurisdiction to make such corrections, which are also supported by judicial rulings emphasizing the limited scope of rectification. Similar principles apply in related proceedings under the Civil Procedure Code, SARFAESI Act, and Debt Recovery Tribunal, where clerical errors in certificates or orders can be corrected to ensure record accuracy without affecting substantive rights.
