JUDGMENT :- This second appeal arises out of a suit for permanent injunction which the plaintiff sought against the defendants seeking to restrain the latter from dispossessing the former from a portion in house no.

The defendants, Nos. 1 and 2, namely, Raj Kumarsingh and Harish Chandra, are the sons of the defendant No. 4 and the defendant No. 3. Maniram, is the husband of defendant No. 4.
