Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal regarding the title and possession of property, affirming the High Court's order that the appellant had no title to the estate, which was determined to be Pavadi land vested in the State post-abolition of the estate. The Court noted that the appellant was in possession but was lawfully ejected under Section 339(2) of the Tamil Nadu Municipal Act, as the land was part of a public bus stand. The Court found no grounds for interference with the lower courts' concurrent findings.
