Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court ruled that the plaintiffs, being the legal heirs of Venkata Ramana Rao, are entitled to recover possession of the disputed land under Section 34 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, as they established their title and prior possession. The court held that the defendant's claim of ownership through an alleged agreement was not substantiated by adequate evidence, and the plaintiffs' continuous assertion of their rights over the property was sufficient to grant them relief. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, and the plaintiffs were granted possession of the land in dispute.
