State Of West Bengal vs The Dalhousie Institute Society on 5 August, 1970
27. The requirements for perfecting title by adverse possession
have been stated in the case of State of West Bengal v. The Dalhousie
Institute Society, supra, referred to me by the learned counsel for
defendants. They would show that by evidence, it must be established
that the possession is open continuous, uninterrupted and adverse to the
real owner for such a period as is prescribed under Articles 64 and 65 of
the Limitation Act. The prescription for such a nature of possession is of
12 years.

do not think that the claim of the defendants that the suit house was
received by them in exchange for Mainabai's house given to Sheshrao can
be said to have been established in this case. The reason is that to seek
any application of this principle of law, the defendants would be required

the oral exchange took place. The evidence brought on record by them
shows the position to be otherwise. The evidence of defendant no. 1
Balkrishna (Ex.52) is relevant in this regard. He has stated in paragraph

and Sheshrao on the basis of an oral agreement. He also states that in
addition to giving of house of Mainabai to Sheshrao, he had paid
Rs.850/- to Sheshrao. This would show that basically this transaction
was not purely that of an exchange, as defined under Section 118 of T.P.
Act but was also accompanied by a consideration in terms of money and,
therefore, it was a transfer of ownership partly in exchange for a price
and partly in exchange for ownership of one thing for the ownership of
another. Such transaction would also fall within the definition of "sale"
