Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision affirming the First Appellate Court's decree in favor of the plaintiffs for declaration of title and possession of the suit property. The Court found that the plaintiffs proved their ownership by inheritance from the Kalasammanavara family, and the defendants failed to establish their claims of lawful possession. The Court emphasized the importance of establishing ownership and possession in property disputes, thereby affirming the lower courts' findings and dismissing the appeal.
