P NAGA KUMARI vs SPL COURT UNDER AP LAND GRABBING ACT — C.A. No. 5038/1997

Case Summary: P Naga Kumari v. SPL Court Under AP Land Grabbing Act Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the appeal on November 30, 2000, setting aside the High Court's order and restoring the Special Court's judgment dated August 5, 1996. The Court found the High Court erred in accepting an adverse possession plea that was never raised before the Special Court and in misinterpreting the Commissioner's survey report regarding encroached land measurements among three adjacent plots in Hyderabad. Key Issue: The dispute involved 53 square yards of land encroached upon Plot No. 60 (appellant's property) by owners of adjoining Plot Nos. 58 and 59. The Special Court correctly concluded the excess land belonged to the appellant; the High Court's interference was unjustified. Cost: No order as to costs.
