Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the Andhra Pradesh High Court's judgment in Second Appeal No. 656 of 1997, which had restored the trial court's dismissal of the petitioner's suit for declaration of title and permanent injunction. The Court held that the petitioner had established his title through a chain of registered sale deeds, including one dated 5.3.1984, and was in peaceful possession of the property. The Court emphasized the importance of registered deeds in establishing ownership and possession, thereby reversing the High Court's decision.
