JUDGEMENT
PRASENJIT MANDAL,J. -
(1.) THIS second appeal is at the instance of the defendants/appellants herein and is
directed against the judgment and decree dated August 31,
2007 passed by the learned Additional District Judge, 1st Court, Howrah in Title Appeal No.1 of 2007 thereby
affirming the judgment and decree dated November 30, 2006
passed by the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), 6th
Court, Howrah in Title Suit No.101 of 2005.
(2.) THE original plaintiff, Smt. Sovona Sarkar filed a title suit being Title Suit No.101 of 2005 for
declaration of title, permanent injunction and other
reliefs.
The defendants are contesting the said suit by filing a written statement denying the material
allegations raised in the plaint and he has submitted
that he is a tenant in respect of the Schedule 'B'
property and has made construction on the Schedule 'C'
property as described in the schedule to the plaint. The
suit property as described in Schedule 'A' to the plaint
is of intermediary status and as such, the same has been
vested in the State and so, from the date of vesting, the
tenant became a direct tenant under the State and as
such, the plaintiff has no right, title and interest over
the suit property. The L.R. record of rights has been
prepared in the name of the defendants and they have paid
rents and taxes to the Municipality. They obtained a
sanctioned plan for making construction on the Schedule
'C' property. Since vesting the plaintiff has no right,
title and interest in the suit property. She cannot get
any relief as sought for in the plaint and as such, the
suit should be dismissed.
(3.) THE learned Trial Judge upon analysis of the evidence adduced by the parties has held that the
plaintiff has been able to prove the plaint case and
accordingly, he has decreed the suit on contests without
costs. He has declared that the plaintiffs are the
absolute owners in respect of the Schedule 'A' property.;
