In injunction suits, the plaintiff must establish possession and title; revenue records are not conclusive proof of ownership.
Mere entries in revenue records do not confer title; to maintain a suit for declaration, a party must also seek possession.
In property disputes, the onus lies on the claimant to prove title, with reliance on unproven wills and agreements leading to dismissal of claims.
