Proceedings of the Legislative Council of the United Provinces Thursday July 8 1926 Official Report

1926

It seems to me that exactly the same cosiderations apply to the case of this sub-lease and that five years is the fair and logical period to adopt in view of the acceptance by the Council of the period of five years for the heir. [...] When the leases of the tenants-in-chief are to be considered as null and void as against the landlord at the time of the temination of the term of the settlement there is absolutely no reason why the sub-leases the leases of the ahikmis which are to be discouraged as a matter of policy should not be permitted to be terminated when the term of the settlement comes to an end. [...] The only persons who are interested in the land so long as the Government gets its quick tax in the form of revenue are the landlord and the tenant and the landlord and the tenant are the persons who are entitled to make any arrangement they like in respect of the holding. [...] But the point which is before the House is this whether it should be for the landlord to say that such a sub-lease will not be valid or whether it is for the Government to say that even if the landlord and the sub-tenant and the tenant agree inspite of the agreement of all these parties the sub-leases shall be void. [...] There was also a provision that if the holding of the tenant consisted of ten bighas or less and the balance left with the tenant after the acquisition of the land was insufficient for the upkeep of the family the application could be reject.
