Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision dismissing the plaintiff's appeal and allowing the defendant's appeal regarding property rights. The Court found that the plaintiff failed to prove her claim of a 1/6th share in the property, as the defendant had established occupancy rights through a Land Tribunal order that was not challenged. The Court emphasized that the plaintiff's assertion of her father's absolute ownership was unsubstantiated, leading to the conclusion that the defendant's rights prevailed under the relevant property laws.
