ZAMINDER DHARMIK & SHEKSHNIK NYAS vs SIDDHANATH (DEAD) BY LRS.

The Supreme Court addressed the dismissal of a civil appeal under Section 100 CPC by the Madhya Pradesh High Court, which held no substantial question of law was involved. The Court emphasized that the appellant, a trustee of a religious and educational trust, was dispossessed of land under Section 248 of the M.P. Land Revenue Code, despite historical claims of ownership. The Court held that the High Court's summary dismissal was erroneous, as substantial questions of law regarding land ownership and rights under Section 57 of the M.P. Land Revenue Code were indeed present.
