Summary of Case 100008/2021 (Umadevi v. State of Kerala) The Kerala Forest Tribunal dismissed five original applications filed by Umadevi and others as not maintainable, finding it lacked jurisdiction to hear them. The applicants claimed properties were rubber plantations and should not be classified as "Ecologically Fragile Lands" under the 2005 Act. However, the State's Forest Department argued the properties were statutory "Vested Forests" under the 1971 Act—a category outside the Tribunal's jurisdiction. Since both parties agreed the lands were not Ecologically Fragile Lands, the Tribunal found no genuine dispute remained for it to adjudicate. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
