JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) Plaintiff Raj Kumar Khosla, having failed in both the courts
below, has filed the instant second appeal.
(2.) Plaintiff and defendant no.5 are sons and defendants no.1, 6
and 7 are daughters of Hardyal Khosla. Defendants no.2 and 4 are sons and
wife of another pre-deceased son of Hardyal Khosla. Case of the plaintiffappellant is that Hardyal Khosla was owner in possession of the suit
properties bearing nos. 3780-3781 and accordingly, on his death, plaintiff
inherited 1/6
th
share in the suit properties. The plaintiff, therefore, claimed
partition of the suit properties. The plaintiff also sought rendition of
accounts regarding rent amounts of the suit properties received by
defendants no.1 to 3.
(3.) Defendants no.1 and 7 pleaded that the plaintiff, after his
marriage, started residing separately from his father and other family
members. The plaintiff used to misbehave with his father, who therefore,
disinherited the plaintiff. Hardyal Khosla executed Will dated 09.07.1976
bequeathing all his properties in favour of his wife Agya Wanti and
accordingly, Agya Wanti became exclusive owner in possession of the suit
properties on the death of Hardyal Khosla in the year 1979. Agya Wanti
executed Will dated 18.04.1989 in favour of her unmarried daughter
defendant no.1 regarding suit property no.3781 and movable properties.
Agya Wanti also executed another Will dated 04.01.1998 bequeathing
property no.3779-3780 in favour of defendants no.1 to 3. Defendant no.1
has been serving Agya Wanti as well as defendants no.2 and 3, who were
then minors. Defendant no.4, who is mother of defendants no.2 and 3, had
left the matrimonial home after the death of her husband. Defendants no.2
and 3 were brought up by defendant no.1. In order to look after defendants
no.2 and 3, defendant no.1 remained unmarried. It was thus pleaded that
defendant no.1 is exclusive owner of property no. 3781 and defendants no.1
to 3 are joint owners of properties nos. 3779-3780. Plaintiff and defendants
no.4 to 7 have no right, title or interest in the suit properties.;
