Tara Chand & Ors vs Municipality Gharaunda

The Supreme Court held that the appeals in Civil Appeal Nos. 1009-1010 of 2001 have abated due to the death of several appellants, specifically Nos. 6, 10, 13, and 14, as noted in the Court's order dated 29th April 2008. Consequently, the Court dismissed the appeals as abated, with no order as to costs. This ruling underscores the principle that the death of a party can lead to the abatement of an appeal if it affects the rights of the remaining parties.
