MST. KIRPAL KAUR vs BACHAN SINGH AND OTHERS

The Supreme Court held that the document dated February 6, 1932, was inadmissible under Section 49 of the Indian Registration Act, 1908, as it attempted to alter the nature of prior possession from adverse to permissive. The Court ruled that H's continuous possession since 1920 constituted adverse possession, thereby granting her absolute title to the lands despite the lack of registration of the agreement. The appeal was decided in favor of the respondents, affirming their ownership rights based on adverse possession.
