Gurbachan Singh (D) thr. L.Rs. and Ors vs Gurdial Singh (D) thr. L.Rs. and Ors

Bench: 2 — Kurian Joseph

In Brief

A four-decade family dispute over inherited agricultural land was finally resolved through court-facilitated mediation. The Supreme Court appointed a Tehsildar to demarcate 44 Kanals (out of 132 Kanals) as the entitled share of the deceased daughter's legal representatives. Though the respondents lost the original water source, the Court directed competent authorities to process applications for alternative tubewells within six months and to provide electricity connection within one month of approval. The appeal was disposed of in terms of the Tehsildar's report, recognizing the mediator's efforts and prioritizing an end to litigation affecting multiple generations.
