Lehja Bai (D) Thru Lrs vs Sewanti Bai & Anr

The Supreme Court addressed a partition suit involving joint family properties, where the key issue was the entitlement of shares following the deaths of Ganaram and Sahdeo. The Court upheld the lower courts' findings that Sewanti Bai was entitled to a 7/12th share based on the distribution of shares after the deaths, rejecting the validity of a will dated 22.2.1983. The Court clarified the shares of the parties involved, emphasizing the principles of intestate succession under Hindu law, and confirmed the lower courts' decrees regarding partition and possession.
