Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Patna High Court's decision affirming the validity of a Will executed by Rajendra Singh in favor of Sarjug Singh. The court found that the High Court correctly disbelieved a registered deed of cancellation of the Will, concluding that it had not been revoked. Consequently, the appeal against the High Court's ruling was dismissed, thereby allowing the probate of the Will in favor of the applicant.
