JUDGEMENT
-
(1.)Tutu Singh was plaintiff before the trial Court and he has filed suit for possession and permanent injunction over khasra no. 21/2 new no. 147
measuring 70 acres. As per the pleadings of the plaintiff, he and defendant
belonged to same family. The ancestral lands of the plaintiff and defendant
were partitioned in the year 1986 and since then each of them is in
possession of their shares and doing agriculture over it. When plaintiff was
about five years old then his grandfather Nandlal has gifted him a land as per
the gift deed dated 09.09.1986. The land was self acquired property of
Nandalal. In the year 2013 defendant has forcefully taken possession of the
land and sowed their crops on it. Plaintiff has filed an application under
Section 250 of M.P.L.R.C before Tehsildar but same was dismissed on the
ground that defendants are in possession since long time.
(2.)Defendants had filed their written statement and stated that father of Tutu Singh namely Neetram has prepared a false gift deed. Plaintiff has not given the
details of khasra numbers over which defendants has forcibly taken possession. It
is submitted by the defendants that they are in possession of land which fall in
their shares. Disputed land is in name of plaintiff and his brother Jeevan Singh
but Jeevan Singh has not been made a party in the case, therefore, civil suit
suffers from non-joinder of necessary party and deserves to be dismissed.
(3.)Learned trial Court held that plaintiff was able to prove the gift deed. Gift deed is registered deed, written and signed by two witnesses. Learner trial Court
held that plaintiff is owner of land bearing no. 147 measuring 0.28 hectares
situated in Village Budrukhi, Tehsil and District Dindori. Trial Court decreed the
suit and held that that plaintiff is owner of the suit land and further defendant
nos. 1 to 6 were directed to handover the possession of land within a period of
two months. Defendants were further restrained from interfering with the
position of land in question themselves or through their agents.
