Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined whether the Board of Revenue was justified in refusing to admit a certified copy of a mutation entry as additional evidence under Order 41 Rule 27 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The core dispute involved a claim for a share in agricultural land based on whether the original tenant died before or after specific legislative changes. The court addressed the admissibility of secondary evidence to establish the date of death of a party to determine inheritance rights.
