Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether the appellants, who purchased property from Major K.V. Kohli, could contest the application for grant of letter of administration filed by Mrs. Pamela Manmohan Singh, the other heir. The Court held that the appellants were not entitled to contest as they had acquired the property under circumstances that violated existing court orders, specifically referencing Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's decision to set aside the appellants' application.
