VISHWA VIJAI BHARTI vs FAKHRUL HASAN & ORS.

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in setting aside the district court's finding regarding the fraudulent nature of entries in the record of rights under Section 100-103 of the Civil Procedure Code. The Court emphasized that the High Court lacked jurisdiction to overturn factual findings made by the district court, which had established that the entries were fictitious and made fraudulently. The judgment reinforced that while entries in revenue records are generally presumed correct, this presumption does not apply to fraudulent entries, which are devoid of legal effect.
