AJIT KAUR @ SURJIT KAUR vs DARSHAN SINGH (DEAD) THROUGH LRS.

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming the validity of the will dated 5th January 1973 executed by Bhana, which bequeathed his estate to the plaintiffs, excluding Smt. Banti and her daughter Ajit Kaur. The Court reiterated that the earlier gift made to Smt. Banti did not confer absolute ownership and was limited to her lifetime, thereby preserving the reversionary rights of the plaintiffs. The appeal by the defendant was dismissed, confirming the plaintiffs' entitlement to the property under the will.
