The short facts of the case are that the plaintiff -respondent filed the suit for permanent injunction to restrain the defendant -appellant from interfering in possession over the Plot No. 43 carved out of Khasra Nos. 398 and 403.

Agra was owner of Plots No. 361, 362, 378 to 405 situate in village Gailana Mustkim Pargana District Agra and had purchased the zamindari rights alongwith tenancy rights. Bharat Store Ltd. carved out 50 plots in the said land and named it as Surdas Kunj. By two registered sale -deeds dated 17.6.1946 it sold plot No. 43 to one Munni Lal and Dwarika Prasad. Munni Lal and Dwarika Prasad sold the plot by registered sale -deed dated 17.10.1967 to Raghubar Dayal and Raghubar Dayal sold the plot in question by registered sale -deed dated 2.5.1989 to Natraj Sahkari Avas Samiti Ltd. (plaintiff). The Trial Court found that in the sale -deeds of 1946 and 1967, there was no mention that plot No. 43 was a part of the Khasra No. 398 or 403. In the sale -deed of 1989 a mention was made that this plot was a part of the Khasra No. 398 and 403.
