Sudish Prasad & Ors vs Babui Jonhia @ Manorma Devi & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Patna High Court, affirming that the plaintiff-respondent became the absolute owner of the suit properties following the death of Sukai Mahto. The Court emphasized that the properties were inherited by the plaintiff after her mother's remarriage, and that the defendant's actions as a guardian were deemed to have created a constructive trust. The judgment clarified the legal implications of guardianship and inheritance under the relevant property laws, leading to the dismissal of the defendant's appeal.
