Smt. V. Rajeshwari vs T.C. Saravanabava

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of title and possession of property under the principles of adverse possession. The court held that the defendant's claim of adverse possession was not substantiated as he failed to prove continuous and uninterrupted possession for the statutory period as required under the Limitation Act, 1963. The court affirmed the decrees of the Trial Court and the First Appellate Court, granting the plaintiff title and recovery of possession over the suit property, thereby reinforcing the legal principle that mere occupation does not equate to ownership without valid title.
