Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Bombay High Court in Second Appeal No.164/1968, which restored the trial court's decree favoring the defendants, the Swetambari Jain community, over the plaintiffs, the Digambari Jain community. The Court emphasized the need for clear evidence of community rights over the disputed properties, particularly in light of historical claims and management disputes dating back to 1903 and 1910. The Court held that the plaintiffs failed to establish their entitlement to the properties in question, thus affirming the lower court's ruling.
