Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision declaring Savitri Bai as the rightful owner of the suit property based on the registered Sale Deed dated 18.01.1979, thereby affirming her possession. The Court found that the Will dated 23.03.1977 executed in favor of Meghraj was null and void, as it was contested by the plaintiff. The Court emphasized the importance of registered documents in establishing ownership and possession under the Transfer of Property Act, leading to the dismissal of the defendants' appeal.
