Adverse possession

NEELAM GUPTA & ORS. versus RAJENDRA KUMAR GUPTA & ANR.

The registered sale deed dated 04.06.1968 conveyed ownership to the plaintiff; the appellants failed to prove adverse possession for the prescriptive period and their evidence showed only permissive possession (adhiyadar), so the suit was not barred by limitation under Article 65 and the High Court correctly decreed recovery of possession for the plaintiff; sale deeds were not void for minority or benami on the facts.
