Eviction of Tenant

Ajay Itakikar (Querist) 13 January 2010 This query is : Resolved
I have an ancestral property of agricultural land. But it is occupied already by tenant (now his legal heirs). My name is in the column of 7 and tenant names are in column 12 in the 7/12 extract. I want to evict them but they are declared to be "Protected Tenants" according to Bombay Agricultural Land Tenancy Act,1958. Any one from tenants never paid me any charges of rents (lagaan, lagwan). Is this a sufficient ground to ask for eviction?

This above stated property is situated in the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra wich was a part of Madhya Pradesh before 1st May 1960. So it was also governed bythat province's acts.

Non payment of lagaan is a good ground to get the land evicted but if tenant deposits the entire rent before the office of the collector where you shall file eviction petition on the receipt of the notice, then this ground shall lapse so better negotiate with him.

where should I get the bare act of Bombay agricultural land tenancy act,1958? How to calculate rent? i.e. govt. system of calculation of agricultural rent?
