Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the agreement for reconveyance of property under the Joint application dated 20.11.1963 is enforceable, as it was a condition of the sale-deed executed on 15.7.1964. The Court emphasized that the plaintiff's right to reconveyance within five years is valid and should be honored, thereby reversing the High Court's dismissal of the suit. The Court directed the execution of the reconveyance deed, affirming the trial court's decree subject to the plaintiff repaying Rs. 7000 to the defendant.
