Analysis and Conclusion:
Easements of May Necessary—particularly easements of grant and necessity—are recognized under Indian law primarily through express or implied grants, with courts emphasizing the importance of proving necessity and continuous enjoyment. While easements of grant can be explicitly documented or implied by necessity, claims lacking clear proof of such necessity are often rejected. Amendments to pleadings and proper evidence, including surveys when needed, are vital for establishing easement rights. Courts also consider procedural aspects, such as the necessity of parties like the Collector, when adjudicating easement disputes. Overall, the legal framework underscores that easements of necessity are contingent upon clear, continuous, and reasonable enjoyment, with courts carefully scrutinizing claims to prevent unwarranted restrictions on property rights.
