In which of the following matters is the jurisdiction of the civil Court not excluded under the M.P. Land Revenue Code, 1959?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Section 257 of the M.P. Land Revenue Code bars civil courts from matters such as "Ejectment of Government Lessee", "Restoration of possession of an occupancy tenant" and "Any claim to modify any entry in nistar patrak", but civil court jurisdiction over "Partition of holdings" is not excluded, as the proviso to Section 178 contemplates the civil court deciding title disputes in partition.
