Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision regarding the specific performance of a contract for the sale of land under Section 20 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court found that the plaintiff had fulfilled the conditions of readiness and willingness to perform the contract, and that the defendants' refusal to execute the sale deed was unjustified. The Court emphasized that the agreement was valid despite the minor status of one of the defendants, and thus ordered the specific performance of the contract.
