Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the conviction of Pardeshi Ram under Section 302 of the IPC for the murder of his uncle, stemming from a dispute over agricultural land. The court found that the evidence presented, including eyewitness testimony, sufficiently established the appellant's guilt. The appeal against the High Court's dismissal of the conviction was therefore rejected, affirming the lower court's decision.
