Janki Narayan Bhoir vs Narayan Namdeo Kadam

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's judgment restoring the trial court's decree in favor of the respondent, affirming the validity of the will executed by Honaji Dama Kadam under Section 63 of the Indian Succession Act and Section 68 of the Indian Evidence Act. The Court clarified that while two witnesses are required for attestation, one attesting witness can suffice if supported by other evidence as per Section 71 of the Evidence Act. The Court found that the evidence presented was adequate to establish the will's execution despite the appellant's claims regarding the lack of proper attestation.
