Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal regarding the cancellation of a sale deed for land, holding that the sale to the fifth respondent was valid as it was confirmed prior to the appellant's application for resale. The Court noted that the appellant failed to provide evidence of the confirmation of sale to the fifth respondent, which conferred ownership rights. The cancellation order dated February 5, 1974 was upheld as it did not involve any legal error warranting interference, thus affirming the principle that a confirmed sale cannot be resold without proper annulment.
