Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed a civil appeal concerning the ownership and possession of certain properties, initially decreed in favor of the original plaintiff by the City Civil Judge, Bangalore. The Court held that the High Court's reversal of the lower court's decree was erroneous, emphasizing the importance of actual possession and the tenant's attornment to K.S. Setlur. The Court reaffirmed that a permanent injunction cannot be granted if the plaintiff is not in actual possession, thus restoring the original decree in favor of the plaintiff under Section 96 CPC.
