REVENUE DIVISIONAL OFFICER vs A ARUNA — C.A. No. 3641/1998

Case Summary Revenue Divisional Officer v. A. Aruna (C.A. No. 003641/1998) The Supreme Court dismissed the revenue authorities' appeal challenging the High Court's decision that quashed review proceedings. The Special Court had found respondents in adverse possession of plot no.9 in Hyderabad despite the authorities proving title, denying relief under the A.P. Land Grabbing (Prohibition) Act, 1982. The Court held that review jurisdiction under Section 17A requires patent mistakes of fact directly affecting the outcome—mere errors in evidence appreciation cannot justify review, which is not appellate jurisdiction.
