MOHINDER SINGH vs STATE OF PUNJAB .

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of mortgage redemption under the Punjab Land Revenue Act, holding that the rights of the original mortgagees were not extinguished despite subsequent mortgages. The Court emphasized that the absence of the purported receipt in the redemption proceedings did not invalidate the Collector's order for redemption. The appeal against the Financial Commissioner's order was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision to allow redemption of the mortgaged property by the heirs of Telu Ram.
