Which Section of S.P.T. Act provides about transfer of Raiyat rights ?
Answer: C
Transfer of raiyati rights is governed by Section 20 of the Santhal Parganas Tenancy (Supplementary Provisions) Act, 1949.
Section 20 bars any transfer by a raiyat of his right in his holding, by sale, gift, mortgage, will, lease or any other contract, unless the right to transfer is recorded in the record-of-rights, and lets the Deputy Commissioner evict a transferee who took the land in breach of it.
Section 21 is the exception for usufructuary mortgages (bhugut-bandha) by non-aboriginal raiyats, which is why it is the most tempting wrong answer.
