    Case Summary: WPMS/1456/2026 The High Court of Uttarakhand dismissed the writ petition filed by Sant Kaur (legal heirs) and Sukhdev Singh challenging lower court orders denying them bhumidhari rights over disputed land. The court held that the petitioners' current suit was barred by res judicata, as their predecessor had filed an identical suit in 1974-75 which was dismissed on the finding that their possession was merely permissive under a power of attorney, not adverse. Since the petitioners failed to plead a specific date from which their possession became adverse, the court upheld the Board of Revenue's dismissal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
