4. The subject-matter of the suit is immovable property which is more fully described in the Schedule appended to the plaint i.e., a vacant site bearing No.119, situated at 2nd Sector, HSR (Hosur Sarjapur Road), Bangalore-560 102, measuring east to west 12.19 meters and north to south 18.90 metres, totally measuring 230.39 square metres.
5. The plaintiff has articulated the pleadings in order to claim the above said prayer stating that the plaintiff is the daughter of defendant No.1, by name Lakshmamma. The second defendant is the purchaser of the suit schedule property from defendant No.1. It is stated that the property bearing its survey No.191/1 of Agra village originally belonged to the grandmother of the plaintiff by name Smt. Motamma. The said land was acquired by the Bengaluru Development Authority, for formation of HSR layout. The said property bearing survey No.191/1 was fallen to the share of the father of the plaintiff (husband of first defendant) in a family oral partition between the children of late Motamma after her death. The plaintiff's mother was looking after the property after the death of her husband Nanjundappa. In lieu of the property being acquired by the Bengaluru Development Authority, the Bengaluru Development Authority has allotted a site which is morefully described in the Schedule in the name of the first defendant vide Allotment letter dated 14.09.2001. Except the plaintiff and the first defendant, no other legal heirs are left by the deceased Nanjundappa. Therefore, with the plaintiff and the defendant No.1 have succeeded to the said survey number and consequently, thereafter to the site allotted by the Bengaluru Development Authority.
6. It is the further case of the plaintiff that the first respondent though had no exclusive absolute right over the entire property has sold the said property in favour of second defendant under a registered sale deed dated 11.09.2002 without the consent and knowledge of the plaintiff, behind the back of the plaintiff. As such, the said sale deed becomes illegal, null and void and not binding on the plaintiff so far as the plaintiff's undivided share and interest in the said property. That in spite of repeated requests and demands by the plaintiff, the first defendant has not parted with the property
