Madan Mohan Singh & Ors vs Rajni Kant & Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the concurrent findings of three statutory authorities under the U.P. Consolidation of Holdings Act, 1953, which recognized the respondents as legal heirs of Chandra Deo Singh despite the appellants' claims of illegitimacy. The Court emphasized that the relationship between Chandra Deo Singh and Smt. Shakuntala was accepted by society and documented in official records, thus affirming the respondents' rights to inherit. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower courts' decisions and findings as not perverse or contrary to evidence.
