M.M.PUNCHHI
Ram Sarup – Appellant
Versus
Patto – Respondent
1. This regular second appeal is by the unsuccessful plaintiffs. Both the Courts below have dismissed their suit for declaration to claim that the land in dispute transferred by Shrimati Patto, defendant-respondent No. 1 (since dead and her name struck off from the array of respondents) in favour of the contesting defendant-respondent was without legal necessity, illegal and ineffective against the reversionary rights of the plaintiff-appellants. That claim is reiterated in the present appeal. Facts giving rise thereto are mentioned hereafter.
2. A parcel of land in village Tigrana Tahsil Bhiwani, District Hissar, was owned by one Gopala. On his death sometimes after 1905 but before 1914, his estate was mutated in favour of his widow Shrimati Bujhi. Gopala was a Bhardwaj Brahmin, a high caste Hindu. On 14-4-1911, the Patwari of the village recorded a mutation suggesting transference of the estate of Shrimati Bujhi in favour of her widowed daughter Shrimati Patto. It came to be recorded on her statement to the effect that she had only one daughter Shrimati Patto and who was a widow. It was further stated that from her in-laws side, there was no one to look after her.
