SHRI LOKRAJ AND ORS. vs KISHAN LAL AND ORS.

The Supreme Court addressed the maintainability of a partition suit concerning Inam lands under the Andhra Pradesh (Telangana Area) Abolition of Inams Act, 1955. The Court held that Section 3(1) of the Act abolishes all Inams and vests them in the State, thereby precluding any claims for partition of such lands. The Court concluded that the suit for partition was not maintainable as the Inam lands were deemed abolished and vested in the State, affirming the High Court's decision.
