Narinder Singh Rao vs Avm Mahinder Singh Rao & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the writing executed by Rao Gajraj Singh regarding the inheritance of the suit property was not a valid Will under the Indian Registration Act, 1908, as it was neither registered nor attested by two witnesses, rendering it legally ineffective. The Court affirmed the lower appellate court's findings that the property should be inherited equally by all eight children of Sumitra Devi, as the purported Will was deemed invalid. Consequently, the appeal by the original defendant No. 1 was dismissed, upholding the decision of the High Court.
