Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the dispute over land ownership and possession under the Requisitioning and Acquisition of Immovable Property Act, 1952, specifically Section 6(2). The Court held that the plaintiffs, as legal heirs of V. Varadaraju, were entitled to reclaim possession of 2 acres and 12 guntas of land that was encroached upon by BEL, despite previous rulings regarding possession. The Court emphasized the importance of actual possession and the need for a separate action to establish title and seek possession, ultimately ruling in favor of the plaintiffs.
