DAULAT RAM vs SAROOP RAM

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Punjab & Haryana High Court, affirming that the appellant did not have exclusive possession of the property in question. The Court found that the mortgage was redeemed jointly by all co-owners, and thus the appellant could not claim to be the sole mortgagee. The Court emphasized that the evidence presented did not support the appellant's claim of individual redemption, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
