According to it he and respondent No.2 being sons of Ghanshyam Prasad Patel are the real brothers while the appellants and respondents No.3 are sons of respondent No.2. In the life time of Ghanshyam Patel in his presence on 19.7.1973 the family property was partitioned between him, respondent No.2 and said Ghanshyam Patel, in which the aforesaid disputed house was given to respondent No.1 in his share and since then he is coming in possession of the same. The share of the house given to the respondent No.2, and Ghanshyam Patel are shown in the green and blue colour in the aforesaid annexed map. In such premises, the appellant and respondent No.2, 3 did not have any right in the disputed house. Said Ghanshyam Patel died on 29.5.2004. Since, then the appellant and respondent Nos. 2 and 3 are trying to interfere in his possession of aforesaid house, for which a report is also lodged with the Police, Patan. With these pleadings the aforesaid suit is filed.

3. In the written statement of the appellant by denying the averments of the plaint, it is stated that the description of the house received by the respondent No.1 in the alleged partition is not specifically pleaded in the plaint.

In additional pleadings it is stated that the possession of the alleged house was never taken by the respondent No.1.

As such after the partition since 1973 onwards for 20 years Ghanshyam Prasad Patel was remained in possession of the house and thereby her perfected his title on it by adverse possession and after his death the same is coming in possession of the appellant and respondent No.2. During the aforesaid period no proceedings for taking over the possession was initiated by the respondent No.1. The suit is filed on insufficient court fee on improper valuation. The same is also tiled baited by limitation. With these pleadings the prayer for dismissal of the suit is made.

4. In view of the pleadings of the parties after framing the issues the evidence was recorded. On appreciation by holding the respondent No.1 is in possession of the house since 1973 from the time of the family partition and never sold the same at any point of time to his father Ghanshyam Prasad Patel and also by holding the appellant and respondent Nos. 2 and 3 had never perfected their title on such property by adverse possession and the suit is filed with in limitation on proper valuation and court fees, decreed the same by the trial Court.
