The Taluk Land Board has obviously misconstrued the directions contained in the order dated 6.1.2003 in CRP.No.37/1999. What was meant therein is the exclusion of the lands covered by the two gift deeds executed by the declarant under Section 84(1A) of the Kerala Land Reforms Act, 1963. It is stated that the declarant had executed two gift deeds (Document Nos.28/73 and 29/73) in respect of the lands included in his account. 2. The Taluk Land Board has only verified as to whether the excess lands directed to surrender is taken in by the two gift deeds or not. What was meant is to totally exclude the area covered by the two gift deeds from the account of the declarant. The Taluk Land Board shall verify this aspect and pass consequential orders. The obligation to surrender 9 cents as excess lands would depend upon the exclusion of the lands covered by the gift deeds under Section 84 (1A) of the Kerala Land Reforms Act, 1963.
3. The impugned order is set aside and the CRP (LR) No.54/2014 2 Taluk Land Board is directed to pass final orders within a period of four months. The legal heirs of the declarant shall be put on notice before final orders are passed in this regard.
The CRP (LR) is disposed of as above.
