This document contains the original judgement from the Supreme Court of India in the case of Narinder Singh & Ors. vs. Divesh Bhutani & Ors. It addresses the complex legal interpretation of what constitutes 'forest land' under the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980, particularly in relation to lands notified under the Punjab Land Preservation Act, 1900. The judgement is crucial for understanding the legal definitions and protections surrounding forest areas and their use.
