T. Anjanappa And Ors vs Somalingappa And Anr on 22 August, 2006

42. In the present case the Defendant in his written statement has merely mentioned the fact of his having become the owner and his remaining in possession for the past 30 years by way of adverse possession. Adverse possession is being claimed by the Defendant merely on the basis of long possession. The Defendant is completely silent as to how and when the possession of the Defendant became adverse to the title of the Plaintiff or whether the Plaintiff had knowledge about the possession of the Defendant. The pleading of the Defendant in his written statement is completely silent on this aspect. Since the defendants were unable to demonstrate holding of the RCA No 68/18 Sant Singh Vs Jagjit Singh Sawhney & Ors Page no 23/30 possession hostile to the real owner and also the knowledge of the owner about the same as per their defence, their mere long possession cannot be said to have ripen into possessory title for want of the animus possidendi as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the matter of T Anjanappa Vs Somalingappa & Others (2006)7 SCC 570, Brijesh Kumar & Anr Vs. Shardabai ( Dead) By LRs & Ors (2019) 9 SCC 369, Kurella Naga Druva Vudaya Bhaskara Rao, M Radheshyam Ian Babu vs Sandhya & Ors .

Saroop Singh vs Banto & Ors on 7 October, 2005

Since the defendants have failed to demonstrate their possession adverse to the title of the plaintiff, it cannot be said that the period of limitation of 12 years as prescribed under Article 65 of the schedule to the limitation act began to run for want of the requisite animus and thus it cannot be said that the right of the plaintiff became extinguished since the period of prescription had not even commenced as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in the matter of Saroop Singh vs Banto ( 2005) 8 SCC 330.

Annasaheb Bapusaheb Patil & Ors. Etc. ... vs Balwant And Balasaheb Babusaheb ... on 6 January, 1995

In Annasaheb Bapu Saheb Patil Vs Balwant AIR 1995 SC 895 held that Ar- ticle 65 of the Schedule to the Limitation Act prescribes that for possession of immovable property or any interest therein based on title, the limitation of 12 years begins to run from the date of the defendant's interest becomes adverse to the plaintiff. Adverse possession means a hostile assertion i.e. a possession which is expressly or impliedly in denial of title of the true owner. Under Article 65, burden is on the defendants to prove affirmatively. A person who bases his ti- tle on adverse possession must show by clear and unequivocal evidence i.e pos- session was hostile to the real owner and amounted to a denial of his title to the property claimed. In deciding whether the acts, alleged by a person, constitute adverse possession, regard must be had to the animus of the person doing those acts which must be ascertained from the facts and circumstances of each case. The person who bases his title on adverse possession, therefore, must show by clear and unequivocal evidence i.e. possession was hostile to the real owner and amounted to a denial of his title to the property claimed. Where possession could be referred to a lawful title, it will not be considered to be adverse. The reason being that a person whose possession can be referred to a lawful title will not be permitted to show that his possession was hostile to another's title. One who holds possession on behalf of another, does not by mere denial of that other's title make his possession adverse so as to give himself the benefit of the statute of limitation. Therefore, a person who enters into possession having a lawful title, cannot divest another of that title by pretending that he had no title at all.
