JUDGMENT :
VIRINDER AGGARWAL, J.
1. Through the present Regular Second Appeal (for short “RSA”), the appellant-plaintiff has approached this Court seeking to set aside the judgment and decree dated 08.09.2025 rendered by the learned Additional District Judge, Rewari, whereby the judgment and decree dated 02.02.2022 passed by the learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), Rewai was affirmed.

The court affirmed that occupancy rights can be established through long-standing tenancy and implied promises, as per the Punjab Tenancy Act and the 1952 Act.
