Sathyanarayan Bagla vs Controller Of Estate Duty on 14 July, 1980

41. Our attention was drawn to a decision of the Supreme Court in the case of Sree Sree Ishwar Sridhar Jew v. Sushila Bala Dasi , where Mr. Justice B.K. Mukherjea observed that the dedication might be either absolute or partial. The property might be given out to an idol or it could be subjected to a charge in favour of the idol. The question whether the idol itself could be considered to be the true beneficiary subject to a charge in favour of the heirs or specified relative or the testator for their upkeep or that on the other hand these heirs should be considered to be the true beneficiaries of the property subject to a charge for the upkeep of worship expenses of the idol was a question which could only be settled by a conspectus of the entire provision of the will. But, in that case, the right of residence given to the shebaits did not, it was held, detract from making the dedication an absolute trust. The Supreme Court observed that the right given to the servant did not detract from the absolute character of the dedication. The right in this case, if it be called a right and not a privilege, merely was given as human ministrant to the divine deity.

Ram Ratan Lal vs Kashinath Tewari And Ors. on 29 July, 1965

The learned Single Judge rightly relied on the observations of their Lordships of the Supreme Court in Sree Sree Ishwar Sridhar Jew v. Mt. Sushila Bala Dasi, AIR 1954 SC 69 to the effect that merely because a Shebait acted contrary to the terms of his appointment or in breach of his duties as Shebait he could not claim adverse possession against the idol. Such conduct on the part of the Tewaris would amount to breach of their duties as Shebaits of the deity.

Nirmala Bala Ghose And Another vs Balai Chand Ghose And Ors on 29 March, 1965

In a recent judgment of this Court in Sree Ishwar Sridhar Jew v. Sushila Bala Dasi and Others(1) it was observed. that the question whether the idol itself is the true beneficiary subject to a charge in favour of the heirs of the testator, or the heirs are the true beneficiaries subject to a charge for the upkeep, worship and expenses of the idol, has to be determined by a conspectus of the entire deed or will by which the properties are dedicated and that a provision giving a right to the Shebaits to reside in the premises dedicated to the idol for the purpose of carrying on the daily and periodical worship and festivals does not detract from the absolute character of a dedication to the idol.
