Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the questions framed by the High Court regarding the validity of a sale deed and the rejection of additional evidence were not substantial questions of law but rather questions of fact. The Court emphasized that both the trial Court and the first appellate Court had thoroughly examined the evidence and concluded that the plaintiff failed to prove the genuineness of the sale deed dated 24.11.1971. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, allowing the appeal and reinstating the findings of the lower courts.
