Punjab Settlement Manual

Term "Adhlapi" is form of tenure under which proprietary rights are acquired in land, through agreement whether oral or written by reclamation or expenditure of capital in sinking a well

Adhlapi is very common form, arid under such agreement the proprietor of a well estate not possessing a well gives half of his land in proprietary rights to an outsider who sinks a well, and thereupon acquires the proprietary right of half the well, and of the land attached to it.

Entry in special Jamabandi is one such determining factor and entry of such land as Banjar Jadeed or Banjar Qadeem in Jamabandi has to be considered and appreciated.

'Min' is an Arabic word of which the literal meaning is "from".

Adhlapi mutation could be attested only on proof of two conditions; that in crucial year a well had been sunk in any of the disputed Khatas and that land had been brought under cultivation

Concurrent findings of fact of Courts below could not be interfered with there being no material on record to show that said conditions were fulfilled

Petition being devoid of merit, leave to appeal was refused.
