       24.03.2022 BSB, J

                         Heard learned counsel for the appellants.
                         The suit was filed for permanent injunction.
                  The suit was dismissed, among other grounds,
                  that the survey number and boundaries of the
                  property covered by Exs.A.1 and A.2 are not
                  tallying with the plaint schedule property and
                  further that the contents of Exs.A.1 and A.2
                  under which the said property said to have been
                  assigned, are not proved though they were
                  marked, subject to objection.             In appeal, the
                  suit was decreed by allowing the appeal basing
                  on the admission in the written statement about
                  the possession of the plaintiffs as the main
                  consideration      in   a    suit   for    injunction    is
                  possession. Having aggrieved by the judgment
                  in the appeal, the defendants preferred the
                  second appeal alleging that the admission in the
                  written statement is improperly applied to
                  decree the suit and the documentary evidence is
                  also     wrongly   appreciated       and     raised     the
                  following substantial questions of law.
                           1. Whether the appellate court is
                              justified in reversing the well
                              considered judgment of the trial court
                              in dismissing the suit for permanent
                              injunction having arrived at a
                              conclusion that on careful analysis of
                              the evidence on record, the plaintiff
                              who propounded the theory of title
                              under     Exs.A.1    and    A.2     and
                              consequential possession, utterly failed
                              to establish his title and possession
                              over the plaint schedule property.
 2. Whether the appellate court is
   justified in giving a finding that, the
   plaintiff/respondent No.1 was in

possession of the plaint schedule property relying on the pleadings in the written statement of defendant No.2 in suit when the documents Exs.A.1 to A.15 relied by the plaintiff speaks that the plaint scheduled land situated in Sy.No.21/1 is a different from the land shown in the Ex.A.1 which was given on lease to the plaintiff.

3. Whether the appellate court is justified in giving a finding that, the plaintiff is in possession of the land simply relying on the pleading of defendant No.2 in his written statement which is not a sworn statement as evidence without taking into consideration Ex.A.2 patta alleged to be issued by the defendant No.2 which is not legally valid as the said document does not contain the seal of the authority who issued which is of weak evidence to accept the possession of the plaintiff.

4. Whether the appellate court is justified in giving a finding that the plaintiff is in possession of the suit schedule assigned land situated in Sy.No.2/1 of Gollalapadu village, when the documentary evidences of Exs.A.1 to A.15 relied on by the plaintiff speaks against the plaintiff when the land in Ex.A.1 pertaining to Sy.No.21 showing entirely different boundaries compared to the land shown in suit scheduled property, when the Ex.A.2 does not contain the seal of issuing authority, when the Exs.A.4 and A.5 speaks the land shown in the 0065hibits is private land not an assigned land as alleged by the plaintiff and when the Exs.A.7 to Ex.A.13 which of cist receipts does not show the survey number of the lands shown in exhibits.

5. Whether the appellate court below justified in allowing the appeal granting relief of permanent injunction by admitting statement of defendant No.2 in written statement without any proof of evidence or material to prove the same

6. Whether the appellate court is justified in granting relief of permanent injunction to the plaintiff when the plaintiff utterly failed to establish his title possession over the plaint schedule property in view of various discrepancies and inconsistency in evidence.

7. Whether the appellate court is justified in giving a finding relying on the principle that 'the concept of boundaries prevail over the survey number and extent from any confusion does not arise as boundaries are clear' when the boundaries of the land shown in the plaint scheduled property is different from the land shown in the Ex.A.1.

In such view of the matter, it is a fit case to admit the appeal.

ADMIT.
