(3.) THE defence set up by the defendants about their own title on the said plot claiming it to be falling within Khasra No. 1081, the learned trial court held against the defendants that the defendants had no right, title or interest even over that land of Khasra No. 1081 and they had waived their rights by giving an application before the learned Sub Divisional Officer, Sirohi on 01.09.1975 that the land of Khasra No. 1081 was also wrongly entered in their name and the entries may be corrected and the recovery of revenue (lagaan) from them may be stopped. The sale in favour of the plaintiffs was in Khasra No. 1080 of the aforesaid plot. But since the defendants unauthorizedly entered into that suit land, therefore, the relief of possession was also claimed by the plaintiffs.
