Showing contexts for: voidable document in Hamida Begum Alias Alo Bibi vs Umran Bibi & Ors on 6 March, 2008Matching Fragments
We are quite conscious that a Bench consists of two Judges of the Supreme Court in a later decision in the case of Prem Singh vs. Birbal and others reported in AIR 2006 SC 3608, after holding that Section 31 applies both to void and voidable documents, further held that for void ab initio documents, no suit is required to be filed. The latter part of the observations is however in conflict with the aforesaid two decisions mentioned above and thus, the said observation cannot be treated as a valid precedent.
