Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision reversing the Trial Court's dismissal of the respondent's suit for possession of land, emphasizing that the respondent's registered sale deed dated 29.12.1981 was valid under Section 54 of the Transfer of Property Act, 1882. The Court clarified that the appellant's claim of adverse possession was not substantiated as she failed to prove continuous and uninterrupted possession for the requisite period. Consequently, the Court ruled in favor of the respondent, granting possession of the suit land.
