HARI KRISHNA PATEL & ANR. vs STATE OF A.P. & ANR.

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that the appellants failed to prove title by prescription over the disputed land, as they did not provide sufficient documentary evidence, including the absence of proof of title transfer from Kulsum Bi to the appellants' father. The Court noted that the revenue records indicated the Government's ownership and the appellants' possession was permissive, acknowledging the Government's title. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's ruling that the appellants did not perfect title by prescription under the relevant legal principles.
