Questions about Section 96

How do I find court cases under Section 96 of the Goa Land Revenue Code?

In judgments and charge sheets this section is written several ways, and each form finds a different set of orders. These search the full text of every order eCourtsIndia holds, best matches first: Goa Land Revenue Code 96, section 96 Goa Land Revenue Code, section 96 of the Goa Land Revenue Code. Each opens the full list of orders on eCourtsIndia, where it can be narrowed by court, year and outcome.

What should I read with Section 96 of the Goa Land Revenue Code, and has it changed?

Its own text turns on section 32 (Procedure for conversion of use of land from one purpose to another), Transfer of Property Act 100 (Charges), so none of them can safely be read on its own. 4 other provisions in this corpus refer back to it.

When was the Goa Land Revenue Code enacted?
