RAJNARAYAN SHARMA vs SIRNAM SHARMA — C.A. No. 7444/2009

Case Summary: C.A. No. 007444/2009 Rajnarayan Sharma v. Sirnam Sharma Outcome: Supreme Court allowed appellant's appeal on September 12, 2017, setting aside the High Court's finding that respondents (plaintiffs) possessed the disputed land. The entire suit was dismissed. The Court found no documentary evidence supporting respondents' claim of possession as sub-lessees since Samvat 2030 (circa 1973). Crucially, revenue record entries naming the respondents were officially cancelled by the Sub-Divisional Officer as incorrect. In contrast, appellant's registered sale deeds (1984 and 1989) and subsequent revenue mutations establishing his ownership and possession remained uncontested.
