O.S.108 of 1996 was filed<\/p>\n<p>seeking a decree for partition and O.S.540 of 1986 was filed<\/p>\n<p>seeking a decree for declaration of title and possession of the<\/p>\n<p>plaint schedule property. The case of appellant was that plaint<\/p>\n<p>schedule property originally belonged to Late Chellappan<\/p>\n<p>Chettiar and first respondent is his wife and on the death of<\/p>\n<p>Chellappan Chettiar it devolved on first respondent appellant<\/p>\n<p>and respondents 2 to 9 and they are in the joint possession and<\/p>\n<p>enjoyment of the property and while Chellappan Chettiar was<\/p>\n<p>alive he obtained kudikidappu right as per order in O.A.2608\/70<\/p>\n<p>and that right devolved on his wife and children and therefore<\/p>\n<p>plaint schedule property is to be divided into ten equal shares<\/p>\n<p>and one such share is to be alloted to the appellant ignoring the<\/p>\n<p>alienations made. Respondents 1 to 3 in their written statement<\/p>\n<p>contended    that   deceased           Chellappan             Chettiar was a<\/p>\n<p>kudikidappukaran in the plaint schedule property and it was he<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 649 &amp; 650\/07                 2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>who constructed the building and he purchased the kudikidappu<\/p>\n<p>right as per the purchase certificate granted in O.A.2608\/70 and<\/p>\n<p>respondents 2 and 3 obtained title to the property as per Ext.A2<\/p>\n<p>sale deed dated 21.12.1970 executed by Chellappan Chettiar in<\/p>\n<p>favour of first respondent and therefore respondents 2 and 3 are<\/p>\n<p>the absolute owners of the property and the property was<\/p>\n<p>mutated in their name and it is not in the joint possession of the<\/p>\n<p>appellant or other children of deceased Chellappan Chettiar and<\/p>\n<p>therefore appellant is not entitled to the decree for partition<\/p>\n<p>sought for. In O.S.540 of 1986, respondents 2 and 3 sought a<\/p>\n<p>decree for declaration of their title    to the plaint schedule<\/p>\n<p>property under Ext.A3 sale deed executed by           Chellappan<\/p>\n<p>Chettiar in their favour. It was contended that appellant is in<\/p>\n<p>possession of two rooms as permitted by Chellappan Chettiar<\/p>\n<p>and she is in permissive occupation of the room and as<\/p>\n<p>respondents 2 and 3 have title to the property, they are entitled<\/p>\n<p>to get a decree for declaration of their title and have a<\/p>\n<p>mandatory injunction.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2. Learned Munsiff jointly tried both the suits. On the<\/p>\n<p>evidence of Pws 1 to 3, DW1 and Exts.A1 to A4, learned Munsiff<\/p>\n<p>found that under Ext.A1 the kudikidappu right was purchased by<\/p>\n<p>Chellappan Chettiar and Ext.A1 will not enure to the benefit of<\/p>\n<p>his wife and children and Chellappan Chettiar under Ext.A2 sold<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 649 &amp; 650\/07                3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the property in favour of respondents 2 and 2 and therefore<\/p>\n<p>respondents 2 and 3 have title to the plaint schedule property.<\/p>\n<p>Learned Munsiff declared the title and also granted a decree for<\/p>\n<p>injunction restraining appellants and other defendants from<\/p>\n<p>interfering with their possession.    A decree for mandatory<\/p>\n<p>injunction was also granted directing appellant and other<\/p>\n<p>defendants to put respondents 2 and 3 in possession of the<\/p>\n<p>building in their possession finding that they are only in<\/p>\n<p>permissive possession of the property. Consequently O.S.108 of<\/p>\n<p>1986 was dismissed.     Appellant challenged the decree and<\/p>\n<p>judgment in O.S.108 of 1986 in A.S.281 of 1997 and the decree<\/p>\n<p>and judgment in O.S.540 of 1986 in A.S.282 of 1997 before<\/p>\n<p>District Court, Thiruvananthapuram.         Learned Additional<\/p>\n<p>District Judge, on reappreciation of evidence, confirmed the<\/p>\n<p>findings of learned Munsiff and dismissed both the appeals. It is<\/p>\n<p>challenged in these second appeals.\n<\/p>\n<p>     3. R.S.A.649 of 2007 is filed against the concurrent decree<\/p>\n<p>and judgment in O.S.108 of 1986 and R.S.A.650 of 2007 is filed<\/p>\n<p>against    the concurrent decree and judgment in O.S. 540 of<\/p>\n<p>1986. Learned counsel appearing for the appellant was heard.<\/p>\n<p>The argument of the learned counsel is that the courts below on<\/p>\n<p>the evidence should have found that Ext.A1 purchase certificate<\/p>\n<p>was obtained by Chellappan Chettiar not on his independent<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 649 &amp; 650\/07                4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>right but for the family and therefore Ext.A1 shall enure the<\/p>\n<p>benefit of all family members including the appellant and<\/p>\n<p>therefore under Ext.A2 sale deed respondents 2 and 3 did not<\/p>\n<p>derive independent title and hence the courts below should have<\/p>\n<p>granted a preliminary decree dividing the property as it devolved<\/p>\n<p>on the legal heirs on the death of Chellappan Chettiar . Learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel also argued that in any case when appellant is found to<\/p>\n<p>be in possession of a portion of the building exclusively and the<\/p>\n<p>only case alleged by respondents 2 and 3 was that they were<\/p>\n<p>permitted by Chellappan Chettiar      to occupy, the occupation<\/p>\n<p>thereafter    cannot be tagged on after the right obtained by<\/p>\n<p>respondents 2 and 3 under Ext.A2 and if at all the remedy is only<\/p>\n<p>to seek a decree for recovery of possession and suit for<\/p>\n<p>mandatory injunction is not sustainable.\n<\/p>\n<p>     4. On hearing learned counsel appearing for appellant, I do<\/p>\n<p>not find any substantial question of law involved in the appeals.<\/p>\n<p>As far as Ext.A1 certificate of purchase whereunder the<\/p>\n<p>kudikidappu right was purchased by Chellappan Chettiar         is<\/p>\n<p>concerned, there is no evidence to prove that kudikidappu right<\/p>\n<p>purchased was not that of Chellappan Chettiar but that of the<\/p>\n<p>family. Courts below, on appreciation of evidence, found that it<\/p>\n<p>was Chellappan Chettiar who was the kudikidappukaran and<\/p>\n<p>under Ext.A1, the kudikidappu right was purchased by<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 649 &amp; 650\/07                 5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chellappan Chettiar . During the lifetime of Chellappan Chettiar<\/p>\n<p>himself, under Ext.A2 he transferred his rights in favour of<\/p>\n<p>respondents 2 and 3. In such circumstances, finding of courts<\/p>\n<p>below that Ext.A1 will not enure to the benefit of appellant or<\/p>\n<p>other legal heirs of Chellappan Chettiar, is correct and appellant<\/p>\n<p>is not entitled to claim a decree for partition, as if the property<\/p>\n<p>belonged to Chellappan Chettiar, when he died. It is more so<\/p>\n<p>when under Ext.A2, Chellappan Chettiar earlier transferred the<\/p>\n<p>property in favour of respondents 2 and 3. Therefore courts<\/p>\n<p>below rightly dismissed O.S.108 of 1986.\n<\/p>\n<p>     5.      The argument of learned counsel appearing for<\/p>\n<p>appellant is that as appellent is found to be in exclusive<\/p>\n<p>possession of a portion of the building, without seeking a decree<\/p>\n<p>for recovery of possession,      courts below should not have<\/p>\n<p>granted a decree for mandatory injunction. The argument is that<\/p>\n<p>what was contended by respondents 2 and 3 was that appellant<\/p>\n<p>was permitted by Chellappan Chettiar, the father to occupy it<\/p>\n<p>and if at all there was a permission, it cannot be tagged on with<\/p>\n<p>the title obtained by respondents 2 and 3 and therefore they<\/p>\n<p>should have filed a suit for recovery of possession.<\/p>\n<p>     6.   The appellant instituted O.S.108 of 1986 seeking a<\/p>\n<p>decree for partition of the entire property including the building<\/p>\n<p>for which a decree for recovery of possession was granted, on<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 649 &amp; 650\/07                 6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>the contention that she is in joint possession of the property<\/p>\n<p>along with respondents 2 and 3. There was no case that she was<\/p>\n<p>in exclusive possession of the property as is now canvassed.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore the legal position is that her possession can only be a<\/p>\n<p>permissive one as found by the courts below. If that be the case,<\/p>\n<p>the relief granted by courts below for mandatory injunction is<\/p>\n<p>perfectly legal and warrants no interference.<\/p>\n<p>     7. As no substantial question of law is involved in the<\/p>\n<p>appeals, appeals are dismissed. But in view of the fact that<\/p>\n<p>appellant has been residing in the building, she is granted three<\/p>\n<p>months time from today to surrender the vacant possession of<\/p>\n<p>the building.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                          M.SASIDHARAN NAMBIAR, JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>lgk\/-<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court Esakki Amma Saraswathy vs Thankamoni on 24 July, 2007 IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM RSA No. 649 of 2007() 1.
