Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the dismissal of the appellant's suit for possession of property under the principles of ownership and estoppel. The Court noted that the appellant's claim was based on inheritance from his deceased father, while the respondents established their possession through a valid sale deed dated 15.8.1966. The Court confirmed that the appellant was estopped from filing the suit due to a prior dismissal of a similar injunction suit, thereby affirming the High Court's decision under Section 100 CPC.
