State Act

THE UNITED PROVINCES PANCHAYAT RAJ ACT, 1947

This Act was repealed on a date we do not have by the Uttarakhand Panchayati Raj Act, 2016 (Uttarakhand Act 11 of 2016), s.194(1); it may still apply to matters that began before then.

[66- Subject to the provisions of section 64, a Nyaya Panchayat shall have no jurisdiction to take cognizance of the following civil cases-- (1) a civil case for a balance due on partnership account, except where the balance has been struck by the parties or their agents; (2) a civil case for a share or part of a share under an intestacy or for a legacy or part of a legacy under a will ; (3) a civil case by or against the State Government or the Central Government or a public servant for acts done in his official capacity; (4) a civil case by or against a minor or a person of unsound mind; and (5) a civil case the cognizance of which by a Panchayat established under the U. P. Village Panchayat Act, 1920, is barred by section 25 of the United Provinces Debt Redemption Act, 1940.]3
