Further, the matter was remitted to the Collector for passing fresh orders based on the provisions contained under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a> read with Rule 99(8) of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002423730\">Rules, 2016<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court took note of Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a> and said that it mandates that no bhumidhar belonging to a scheduled caste shall have the right to transfer, by way of sale, gift, mortgage or lease any land to a person not belonging to a scheduled caste except with the previous permission of the Collector in writing. Thus, the previous permission of the Collector was a condition precedent before any bhumidhar of scheduled caste can seek to transfer his land to a person not belonging to a scheduled caste and in the absence of such permission having been obtained, the transfer would be rendered void as per Section 104 and would be subject to the consequences provided under Section 105.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">In the present cases, the respondent authority taking note of the fact that the principal ground for seeking permission was that the land in question was situated very far from the place where the petitioner is residing, said that that this reason would not be a valid ground for grant of permission under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a>. Further, the petitioner had not produced any certificate from the Gram Pradhan to the effect that no person in the village belonging to SC\/ST was ready to purchase the property in question.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt;\">The Court said that the above said requirement of submission of a certificate from the Gram Pradhan is not one of the conditions specified under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a> read with sub rule (8) of Rules 99 of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002423730\">Rules, 2016<\/a>, and therefore, the same cannot be said to be a condition precedent for the purpose of grant of permission under Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98<\/a> of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a>.

Thus, a decision by an authority exercising discretionary power under a statute must be arrived at by taking into account the relevant considerations and eschewing the irrelevant considerations, in the absence of which the action would have to be held as ultra vires and void.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court held that the conditions which are required to be satisfied while considering grant of permission by the Collector to a scheduled caste bhumidhar, seeking to transfer his land are clearly specified under the proviso to Section <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0001677554\">98(1)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002862348\">Code, 2006<\/a> read with Rule 99(8) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink.aspx?q=JTXT-0002423730\">Rules, 2016<\/a>. Thus, any other reference made in the impugned order to reject the application of the petitioner, would render the exercise of discretionary power as ultra vires and invalid.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Omwati v.
