Pushpa vs Chandran on 20 July, 2012
12. Learned counsel would also submit in his argument that the principles laid down by the Honourable Apex court reported in 2011 (3) LW 48 (Rangammal v. Kuppuswami & anr.) is not applicable to the present case since possession was already handed over to the plaintiff. He would also submit that the second defendant could not be in possession of the property since the first defendant is alive still and therefore, the principles laid down in the said judgment, cannot be relevant or applied in this case. He would bring it to the notice of the Court that possession had been handed over as mentioned in Ex.A2 sale deed and therefore, the case of the second defendant that she is in possession through out cannot be considered as true. He would also submit that the documents produced in Exs.B2 and B3 are purely after the suit and therefore, it cannot be relied upon. He would also submit that the second defendant had encroached the property in the year 1994 and therefore, the notice has been sent by the plaintiff to hand over possession but it was neither handed over nor replied. He would also submit that the plaintiff has therefore, asked for possession as it was encroached by the second defendant. He would submit in his argument that the second defendant ought to have proved that the sale transaction Ex.A2 was a void one by resorting to Court and it was not done by her. Therefore, it has become a valid document and the plaintiff is entitled to a decree as sought for by him.
