Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the lower courts regarding the ownership of property based on the registered Will dated 30.04.1968 executed by Smt. Radhi in favor of her grandson, Tilak Raj, under Section 63 of the Indian Succession Act. The Court found that the earlier Will dated 16.01.1968, claimed by Smt. Baikunthi Devi, was not valid, thus affirming the appellant's right to the property. The Court also addressed procedural issues regarding the execution of the decree, emphasizing the importance of accurate land description in property disputes.
