Plaintiffs-Raj Karan Singh and Sukhdev Singh sons of Ajit Singh

who were successful in the trial Court but have been non-suited by the lower

Appellate Court are in second appeal.

Case of the plaintiffs is that the suit land was mortgaged with

possession by predecessor in interest of the defendants/respondents with Ajit

Singh father and predecessor of the plaintiffs/appellants and the mortgage was

not redeemed within limitation period and therefore, plaintiffs have become

owners of the suit land by eflux of time. In the alternative, the plaintiffs also

claimed to have become owners of the suit land by adverse possession.
