¹ Claims to the bapota appear to be maintainable if not alienated longer than one hundred and one years; and undisturbed possession (no matter how obtained) for the same period appears to confer this right. The miras of Khandesh appears to have been on the same footing. See Mr. Elphinstone's Report, October 25, 1819, ed. 1872, p. 17 f., quoted in BG, xii. 266.
