L.R. 352 : 1 L.W. 794 (P.C.); Thakur Vasonfi Morarji v. Chanda Bibi 29 Ind. cas. 781 : 37 A. 369 at P. 376 : 22 C.L.J. 180 : 19 C.W.N. 873 : 17 Bom. L.R. 556 : 18 M.L.T. 31 : (1915) M.W.N. 449 : 2 L.W. 676 : 2 M.L.J. 130 The inflexible application of this view may and does in fact place the alliance at a serious disadvantage when the transaction falls to be challenged after a long series of years. Hence it has been ruled that, though lapse of time does not affect the question of onus of proof regarding legal necessity, it may give rise to a presumption of acquiescence or save the aliened from adverse inferences arising from the scantiness of the evidence offered on his behalf.
