Badri Prasad And Ors. vs Chandrakantabai (Smt) And Ors.

The Supreme Court upheld the lower court's judgment, affirming that Smt. Shivrani retained her rights to the disputed property despite her remarriage, as she was legally recognized as the widow of Shankarlal after his death. The Court found that the defendants admitted the genealogical tree and the joint nature of the property, and Smt. Shivrani's remarriage did not extinguish her civil rights. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed with no order as to costs.
