Annakili vs A. Vedanayagam & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the plaintiffs, having purchased the property from the heirs of Krishnadoss Lala and others, were entitled to possession despite the defendants' claims based on prior government notifications and slum clearance designations. The Court emphasized that the plaintiffs' title was established through a registered deed of sale dated 30.9.1986, and the earlier writ petition allowed by the High Court effectively denotified the land as a slum area. The Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming the plaintiffs' right to recover possession of the property.
