Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision in S.A. No. 2147 of 1985, reversing the earlier judgment of the Subordinate Judge and restoring the District Munsif's ruling in O.S. No. 1459 of 1973. The Court emphasized the importance of establishing title through inheritance and family arrangements, particularly in disputes involving ancestral property. The Court found that the appellants had valid claims to the property based on survivorship and inheritance, thereby affirming their entitlement to the A Schedule property and the injunction against the trespasser.
