Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the suit for recovery of possession of agricultural land was barred by limitation under Section 28 of the Sikh Gurdwaras Act, 1925, as the defendants were deemed to be in adverse possession since 1952. The Court emphasized that the plaintiff's claim was invalid due to the defendants' continuous possession and the failure to establish ownership. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions regarding the limitation period and adverse possession.
