The relevant passage in Velayudkan 's case (supra) occurs in para 24 at page 192 of the report (AIR 1981 Kerala 192) and is as follows: "When the words 'in occupation of a Kudikidappu ' in Explanation II to Sec. 2(25) in the K.L.R. Act as originally enacted was held by this Court to be suggestive of the need for the person claiming Kudikidappu right thereunder to prove permissive occupation as on the relevant date (11.4.1957) thereunder, the legislature omitted the word "Kudikidappu", and resorted to the terminology of 'in occupation of any land and the homestead thereon, or in occupation of a hut . . ' in the proviso to Section 2(25) as amended by the Amending Act, 1969.
