Ram @ Ramdas Sheshrao Neharkar vs Sheshrao Baburao Neharkar

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's suit for partition and separate possession, emphasizing that the appellant failed to substantiate the existence of a valid marriage between his mother Padminibai and the respondent. The Court noted significant discrepancies in the evidence, particularly the absence of the material witness, Padminibai, and the long delay in filing the suit after the appellant attained majority. The Court concluded that the findings of the Trial Court and First Appellate Court were not supported by adequate evidence, thus affirming the High Court's decision.
