Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court, while adjudicating on the appeal under Article 136 of the Constitution, held that the appellant failed to prove fraud and misrepresentation in the execution of the Sale Deed dated 7.4.1975. The Court emphasized that the burden of proof lies on the party alleging fraud, and since the appellant could not substantiate her claims, the dismissal of her suit by the lower courts was upheld. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the validity of the Sale Deed executed in favor of the respondent.
