ABUBAKAR ABDUL INAMDAR (DEAD)BY LRS. AND OTHERS. vs HARUN ABDUL INAMDAR AND OTHERS

The Supreme Court ruled that upon the abolition of Inams under the Bombay Merged Territories Miscellaneous Alienations Abolition Act, 1955, the properties devolved upon the eldest son, Abubakar, by the rule of primogeniture. The Court held that the Inam lands became personal to Abubakar post-regrant, rejecting claims from his siblings for co-ownership. Furthermore, the Court dismissed Abubakar's claim of adverse possession over the house property, affirming the High Court's decision that the entire suit was decreed against him.
