Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Gujarat High Court's dismissal of the appellant's application for leave to appeal, affirming that the wives of the original declarant had no right, title, or interest in the land under the Gujarat Agricultural Land Ceiling Act, 1960. The Court emphasized that the Will executed by the wives did not confer any rights to the appellant. Additionally, the Court noted the significant delay in filing the appeal, nearly ten years after the original judgment, which further justified the dismissal.
