GURVACHAN KAUR vs SALIKRAM (DEAD) THROUGH LRS.

The High Court reversed the lower appellate court's decree of eviction, holding that the plaintiff, Jogendra Singh Ghai, failed to prove ownership of the property and thus could not establish a landlord-tenant relationship with the defendant, Salikram, under the relevant provisions of the Transfer of Property Act. The court emphasized that the plaintiff did not satisfactorily demonstrate his ownership or the continuity of his title from the date of alleged purchase to the date of the rent note. Consequently, the suit for eviction was dismissed, and the appeal was allowed in favor of the defendant.
