B) When the appellant holds 10 cents in sy.no.52/5C and the decree schedule property comprises of only 2 cents out of 1.33 acres in sy.no.52/5C is it legal and proper to hold that the Appellant has no right or title over the property in possession?

C) Are the Commission reports, plans secured and orders issued before the filing of the claim petition binding on the Appellant?

H) Is not the judgment under Appeal vitiated for non compliance with the directions in OP 2939 of 2015? D) Whether the disposal of claim petition by the court below without giving an opportunity to the petitioner to prove the claim is legal?
