Judgment text excerpt
The High Court of Bombay at Goa held that the plaintiffs' appeal for the demolition of structures 'C', 'D', and 'E' was barred by limitation, as the structures were constructed beyond the mundkarial area and the suit was filed after the statutory period. The Court upheld the Trial Court's order for the demolition of structure 'A' only, affirming that the limitation for restoration of possession is 12 years under the relevant provisions. The outcome was a partial allowance of the defendants' appeal, limiting the decree to structure 'A'.
