Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the ownership dispute over ancestral land under Khasra Nos.115, 151, and 152, affirming the applicability of Section 49 of the U.P. Consolidation of Holdings Act, 1953. The Court held that the order expunging Kalyan Singh's name from the revenue records was valid, resulting in the loss of his rights to the property. Consequently, the Court upheld the High Court's decision, which had allowed Kalyan Singh's writ petition, thereby restoring his claim to the land.
