C.M. No. 452-C of 2006<\/p>\n
          This application under Section 151 of the Code of Civil<\/p>\n
Procedure has been moved for condoning the delay of 125 days in<\/p>\n
refiling the appeal.\n<\/p>\n
          For the reasons stated in the application, C.M. is allowed and<\/p>\n
the delay of 125 days in refiling the appeal is coneoned.<\/p>\n
C.M. No. 454-C of 2006<\/p>\n
          This application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act has<\/p>\n
been moved for condoning the delay of 616 days in filing the appeal.
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                      -2-<\/span><\/p>\n
          The plea raised for condoning the delay of 616 days in filing<\/p>\n
the appeal reads as under: –\n<\/p>\n
          “That there is a delay of 616 days in filing the appeal
\n          for the reasons that the counsel for the appellant
\n          could    not   inform   the   appellant   regarding   the
\n          preparation of the certified copy of the decree as his
\n          son was under treatment of PGI, Chandigarh and was
\n          preoccupied with the same and gave the copy of the
\n          decree along with brief to the applicant on 12.2.2004.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
          The application does not make out sufficient cause for<\/p>\n
condoning the delay of 616 days in filing the appeal.<\/p>\n
          Consequently, the application is dismissed.<\/p>\n
R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006<\/p>\n
          This regular second appeal is directed against the judgments<\/p>\n
and decree dated 20.1.2003 and 14.8.2003 passed by the learned<\/p>\n
Courts below vide which the suit filed by the plaintiff\/respondent No. 1<\/p>\n
for declaration and joint possession stands decreed.<\/p>\n
          The plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 brought a suit on the plea that<\/p>\n
Sh. Badri Singh father of the plaintiff owned and possessed land in<\/p>\n
dispute. Badri Singh executed ‘Will’ dated 16.11.1970 in favour of his<\/p>\n
son i.e. plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 and Joginder Singh predecessor in<\/p>\n
interest of the appellant.\n<\/p>\n
          Predecessor in interest of the appellant and plaintiff, on the<\/p>\n
basis of ‘Will’, got mutated the property situated at Ambala. Mutation of<\/p>\n
the disputed land was also sought on the basis of ‘Will’, which was<\/p>\n
disputed by other legal heirs of Badri Singh.<\/p>\n
          The mutation being disputed was referred to Assistant<\/p>\n
Collector, Grade-1, for adjudication.      However, as the plaintiff or<\/p>\n
predecessor of the appellant failed to produce ‘Will’ before the revenue<\/p>\n
Court, the mutation was sanctioned in favour of all the legal heirs of
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                       -3-<\/span><\/p>\n
Badri Singh.\n<\/p>\n
          The appeal filed by plainitff\/respondent No. 1 also failed for<\/p>\n
want of ‘Will’ before the revenue Court.\n<\/p>\n
          The plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 thereafter brought this suit for<\/p>\n
declaration and joint possession on the basis of ‘Will’ dated 16.11.1970,<\/p>\n
executed by Badri Singh.\n<\/p>\n
          The suit was contested by appellants and other defendants.<\/p>\n
          It was pleaded that the ‘Will’ was not executed by free will of<\/p>\n
Badri Singh, and that the ‘Will’ was forged and fabricated document,<\/p>\n
surrounded by suspicious circumstances. The plea that the property<\/p>\n
was ancestral in the hand of Badri Singh was also raised.<\/p>\n
          On the pleadings of the parties, the learned trial Court framed<\/p>\n
the following issues: –\n<\/p>\n
          “1.    Whether the plaintiff is in possession as owner
\n                 of half of the property in dispute? OPP\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           2.    Whether Badri Singh deceased executed valid
\n                 ‘Will’ dated 16.11.1970, if so to what effect?
\n                 OPP\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           3.    Whether the property under dispute was
\n                 ancestral property in the hands of Badri Singh
\n                 and if so, whether he could not will away the
\n                 same, if so to what effect? OPD\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           4.    Whether the plaintiff has not included the entire
\n                 controversial property in this suit, if so, to what
\n                 effect? OPP\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           5.    In case Will is proved to have been executed by
\n                 Badri Singh, the same was not validly executed
\n                 out of his free will and mind, if so, its effect?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
                 OPP\n<\/p>\n
           6.    Whether the alleged Will was acted upon
\n                 between the parties, if so to what effect? OPD\n<\/p>\n
           7.    Whether the suit is barred by limitation? OPD
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                       -4-<\/span><\/p>\n
          8.      Whether the suit is not maintainable in the
\n                  present form? OPD\n<\/p>\n
          9.      Whether the plainitff has a right to own and
\n                  possess half share in the entire property? OPP\n<\/p>\n
         10.      Whether the suit has not been properly filed for
\n                  purposes of court fee and jurisdiction, if so,
\n                  what should be the correct valuation? OPD\n<\/p>\n
          11.     Whether the defendants are entitled to special
\n                  costs? OPD\n<\/p>\n
          12.     Relief.”\n<\/p>\n
          On appreciation of evidence, brought on record, the learned<\/p>\n
trial Court decided issue No. 1 in favour of plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 and<\/p>\n
held that he was owner in possession of half share of the property in<\/p>\n
dispute. ‘Will’ was proved by leading secondary evidence. The learned<\/p>\n
Courts recorded a concurrent finding of fact that the ‘Will’ was validly<\/p>\n
executed and stood proved as per provisions of Section 63 of the<\/p>\n
Succession Act.\n<\/p>\n
          The learned Court held that the suspicious circumstances<\/p>\n
claimed stood explained. On issue No. 3 the learned trial Court by<\/p>\n
taking into consideration the fact that the property was self-acquired<\/p>\n
property of Jawahar Singh and, therefore, could not be said to be<\/p>\n
ancestral in the hands of Badri Singh, held that the property was not<\/p>\n
ancestral in the hands of Badri Nath. Issue No. 3 was decided against<\/p>\n
appellants and other defendants. Issue No. 4 was not pressed. Issue<\/p>\n
No. 5 was also decided against the appellants and other defendants.<\/p>\n
          The plea of the appellants and other defendants that the suit<\/p>\n
was barred by limitation was also decided against appellants and other<\/p>\n
defendants. Issue No. 7 was decided against the appellants and other<\/p>\n
defendants being not pressed.\n<\/p>\n
          Whereas issue No. 8 was decided against the appellants<\/p>\n
being not pressed. On issue No. 9, it was held that the plainitiff in view
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                         -5-<\/span><\/p>\n
of the ‘Will’ was entitled to half share of the property. Whereas issue<\/p>\n
No. 10 was decided against the defendant\/appellants Issue No. 11 was<\/p>\n
decided against the appellants and other defendants.<\/p>\n
          The suit was thus decreed.\n<\/p>\n
          Appeal also failed.\n<\/p>\n
          The learned counsel for the appellants raised the following<\/p>\n
substantial questions of law: –\n<\/p>\n
          “1.     Whether the suit was barred by time?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           2.     Whether the ‘Will’ was required to be proved as
\n                  per the provisions of Indian Succession Act and
\n                  as per the provisions of the Indian Evidence
\n                  Act?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           3.     Whether     the     'Will'   was   surrounded    by\n                  suspicious circumstances?\n           4.     Whether       the     property     inherited    from\n<\/pre>\n
                  father\/grandfather is an ancestral property?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           5.     Whether the Court can club various issues
\n                  while deciding the matter in controversy though
\n                  framed individually\/separately?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
           6.     Whether the impugned judgment is against law
\n                  and facts on the file and liable to be ignored?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
          The learned counsel for the appellants contends that the suit<\/p>\n
for declaration was time barred, as the plaintiff could seek declaration<\/p>\n
within three years from arising of cause of action.<\/p>\n
          The contention of the learned counsel for the appellants is that<\/p>\n
the cause of action arose to the plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 on 28.11.1977<\/p>\n
and, therefore, the suit could not be filed after seven years of the cause<\/p>\n
of action in view of Article 58 of the Limitation Act.<\/p>\n
          However, this plea of the learned counsel for the appellants<\/p>\n
cannot be accepted. It is well settled law that mutation confers no title,<\/p>\n
therefore, it could not be said that merely wrong entry of mutation could<\/p>\n
give cause of action to the plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 to challenge the
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                       -6-<\/span><\/p>\n
‘Will’, when he was in possession as owner.<\/p>\n
          The plaintiff in the pleadings categorically stated that the<\/p>\n
cause of action has accrued to the plaintiff\/respondent No. 1 about three<\/p>\n
months back when the appellants\/defendant and other defendants<\/p>\n
without any cause of action have tried to interfere in the possession and<\/p>\n
were taking steps to dispose of the property.<\/p>\n
          The learned Courts below held that suit seeking declaration<\/p>\n
regarding title to the property could be filed within a period of 12 years,<\/p>\n
and thus the plea of the learned counsel for the appellants that the suit<\/p>\n
was time barred cannot be sustained.\n<\/p>\n
          The learned counsel for the appellants also contends that the<\/p>\n
‘Will’ was not proved as per provisions of the Indian Succession Act and<\/p>\n
was surrounded by suspicious circumstances.<\/p>\n
          This plea of the learned counsel for the appellants also cannot<\/p>\n
be accepted. The learned Courts below have recorded a concurrent<\/p>\n
finding of fact that the ‘Will’ stood proved by examining the attesting<\/p>\n
witnesses, who deposed as per provisions of the Indian Succession Act.<\/p>\n
The suspicious circumstances were also duly explained.                The<\/p>\n
concurrent finding of fact holding that the ‘Will’ was duly proved cannot<\/p>\n
be challenged in regular second appeal on the plea that certain<\/p>\n
evidence has not been properly appreciated.<\/p>\n
          The contention of the learned counsel for the appellants that<\/p>\n
the property was ancestral in the hands of Badri Singh is also mis-<\/p>\n
conceived. The property in the hands of Sh. Jawahar was self-acquired<\/p>\n
property and stood inherited by son. It could not be said to be ancestral<\/p>\n
in the hands of son i.e. Badri Singh, as contended by the learned<\/p>\n
counsel for the appellants.\n<\/p>\n
          Other contentions raised by the learned counsel for the
\n R.S.A. No. 209 of 2006 (O&M)
\n                                                                      -7-<\/span><\/p>\n
appellants also deserve to be rejected, as the Court can club the inter-<\/p>\n
connected issues, and record finding thereon. It is not necessary that<\/p>\n
the Court should answer the issues separately, even though inter-<\/p>\n
connected.   Once findings on all the issues have been recorded, it<\/p>\n
cannot be said that there was any error of law.<\/p>\n
          The substantial questions of law, framed, are answered<\/p>\n
against the appellants.\n<\/p>\n
          The appeal is dismissed being time barred as well as on<\/p>\n
merits.\n<\/p>\n
