Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the concurrent findings of lower courts regarding the ownership and possession of Khasra No. 238 under the Delhi Land Reforms Act, specifically referencing Section 85 which bars civil court jurisdiction over Bhumidari land disputes. The Court affirmed that the plaintiffs were the rightful owners and Bhumidars of the land, dismissing the claims of the defendants regarding encroachment and jurisdiction. The appeal by Defendant No. 4 was therefore dismissed, reinforcing the plaintiffs' entitlement to a permanent injunction against any interference with their possession.
