Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision reversing the lower courts' judgments in a property dispute under Section 34 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963. The Court established that the plaintiff, having purchased the property through a registered sale deed, was entitled to possession despite the defendants' claims of adverse possession and joint family ownership. The Court affirmed the plaintiff's title and ordered restoration of possession, emphasizing the importance of registered documents in establishing ownership rights.
