Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Karnataka High Court's decision regarding the title and possession of property under dispute, affirming the applicability of the principles of adverse possession as outlined in Section 27 of the Limitation Act, 1963. The Court held that the plaintiffs, having established their title through registered sale deeds and municipal records, were entitled to relief against the defendants who claimed adverse possession. The judgment of the High Court allowing the plaintiffs' appeals was confirmed, thereby granting them possession of the property.
