Section 112 of The Ajmer Tenancy and Land Records Act, 1950

Penalty for habitual infringement of rights of tenant.

If a landlord habitually infringes the rights of a tenant under this Act, he shall, notwithstanding anything in section 7 of the Ajmere Government Wards Regulation, 1888 (I of 1888), be deemed to be a "landlord who is disqualified to manage his own property" within the meaning of section 6 of the said Regulation and his property shall be liable to be taken under the superintendence of the Court of Wards.

Summary

Landlords who repeatedly break the rights of their tenants face a heavy penalty.
A landlord who habitually ignores the law is officially labeled as "disqualified to manage his own property".
Because of this label, the government can take over the management of the landlord's estate.
This process is governed by the rules of the Ajmere Government Wards Regulation of 1888.
This ensures that a troublesome landlord can no longer mistreat tenants or mismanage the land.

Practical examples

1Mr. Khan has been fined ten times in three years for illegal exactions, refusing receipts, and wrongful ejectments. Because he habitually infringes on tenant rights, the Court of Wards takes over his estate under Section 112.

2A large estate owner constantly ignores court orders regarding tenant improvements and continues to charge illegal "lag" fees. Under the 1950 Act, he is declared unfit to manage his property, and a government manager is appointed to run his lands.
