LAKHI BARUAH vs PADMA KANTA KALITA

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court dismissing the appeal against the Assistant District Judge's ruling in Title Appeal No.7 of 1992. The Court found that the plaintiffs, Pushpa Kanta Kalita and Padma Kanta Kalita, had established their ownership over the disputed lands and that the registered Sale Deed of 1950 was indeed forged and null and void. The Court emphasized the importance of proving ownership and the validity of documents in property disputes under the Transfer of Property Act.
