Summary of C.A. No. 004257/1999 (Manjit Singh v. Shanti Devi) The Supreme Court allowed the appeal with costs on 30 August 2001, restoring the trial court's decree. The court held that Shanti Devi failed to plead dispossession in her suit and therefore was not entitled to relief for recovery of possession based on possessory title alone. The appellant had challenged the High Court's judgment, which had granted possession to the respondent based on possessory title despite the absence of dispossession allegations in the original plaint.
