SARDARA vs KHANQA H PIR SHAH BADSHAH

This petition for special leave to appeal challenged the concurrent findings of the trial court, the District Judge, and the High Court, all of which rejected the petitioners' claim of adverse possession over the disputed property. The core legal question before the Supreme Court was whether the petitioners had successfully established the essential elements of adverse possession based on the evidence presented, specifically relying on the entries contained in the Jamabandi. Upon review of the record, the Supreme Court found that the entries in the Jamabandi did not support the petitioners' claim or advance their case in any manner. Consequently, the Court affirmed the lower courts' findings that the plea of adverse possession was not substantiated. The Supreme Court held that in the absence of evidence establishing the requisite elements of adverse possession, the concurrent findings of the lower courts were correct and did not warrant interference. Leave to appeal was refused, thereby maintaining the status quo established by the lower courts regarding the property in dispute.
