Bansidhar Sharma (since deceased) rep by His Legal Representative vs State of Rajasthan & Ors

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

This civil appeal challenged an order directing the appellant to restore possession of a disputed property to the respondent-State. The appellant argued that execution applications could only be filed before the first court. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal, holding that when a first appeal is dismissed, the logical consequence is to restore the property's peaceful possession to the defendants. Since the appellant had failed at all stages and lacked legal authority to hold the property, the Court upheld the direction to hand over peaceful possession to the respondents.
