Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court remanded the case to the High Court for a fresh decision on the second appeal, emphasizing the need to address substantial questions of law under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. The Court found that the High Court's dismissal of the appeal was based on findings of fact rather than legal principles, which warranted a reevaluation of the case. The Court held that both parties should be heard on merits, ensuring a fair adjudication of the ownership dispute over the suit land.
