Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals against the High Court's dismissal of Jaswant Singh's claims regarding ownership and possession of land under the Punjab Land Revenue Act. The Court held that the appellant was entitled to ownership of 8 acres and permissive possession of 4-1/2 acres based on a compromise agreement and prior decrees. The Court emphasized the importance of correcting revenue entries to reflect true ownership, thereby upholding the lower court's decision and dismissing the appeals.
