                                                      JUDGMENT

The Second Appeal has been filed against the Judgment and

Decree passed in A.S.No.537 of 1999 dated 25.01.2002 on the file of the

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

Principal Subordinate Judge, Trichy reversing the Judgment and Decree

passed in O.S.No.5 of 1994 dated 27.02.1998 on the file of the District

Munsif, Musiri.

2. For the sake of convenience, the parties are referred to as per

their ranking in the Trial Court.

3.The plaintiffs in O.S.No.5 of 1994 on the file of the District

Munsif, Musiri are the appellants herein.

4.The case of the plaintiffs is that the portion marked as BCEF in

plaint plan (marked as Ex P-1) is suit 'B' schedule property. The portion

marked as EFGH in plaint plan A-1 is suit 'A' schedule property.

Originally, ABEFCD portion in the plaint belonged to Vaiyapuri

Chettiar. The wife of Vaiyapuri Chettiar inherited the property and sold

suit 'B' schedule property to one Mookan Chettiar through Ex.A3 dated

06.06.1918. Thereafter, the wife of said Mookan Chettiar sold the said

property to one Rathinammal through Ex.A4 dated 22.06.1955.

Thereafter, the said Rathinammal sold the said property to 1st plaintiff

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

through Ex.A5 dated 11.05.1968. When the said property was under the

possession and enjoyment of the 1st plaintiff, the defendants asked the 1st

plaintiff to sell said property to them, however, she refused. Enraged by

this, the defendants highhandedly encroached and put up construction in

the 'B' schedule property. The construction put up by the defendants is

shown as 'C' schedule in the plaint. The 'A' schedule property was bought

by the 2nd plaintiff, who is none else than the son of the 1st plaintiff from

one Pichai Chettiar S/o Rathinammal through Ex.A6 dated 02.09.1993.

As the defendants have created documents and claimed that the property

purchased by the 1st plaintiff is 'A' schedule and not 'B' schedule and

further they claimed ownership over 'B' schedule through Ex.B1, the suit

was constrained to be filed to declare that the 1st plaintiff is the sole,

absolute and exclusive owner of the suit 'B' Schedule property and to

deliver possession of the 'B' schedule property to the first plaintiff and to

grant a mandatory injunction in favour of the plaintiffs directing the

defendants to remove the construction in 'C' schedule property.

5.The defendants filed a written statement and contested suit. It is

denied that the subject matter of conveyance under 22.06.1955 sale deed

was a schedule property. It is false to state that Rathinam Ammal vendee

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

under sale deed was put into possession of 'B' schedule property and in

pursuance of said sale deed, she has been in enjoyment of 'B' schedule

property openly, peacefully, continuously and uninterruptedly for more

than that the statutory period of limitation and thus, she had perfected

title by adverse possession also in respect of 'B' schedule property. As

mentioned supra, the subject matter of conveyance under sale deed dated

22-6-1955 was only a schedule property and Lakshmi Ammal was in

enjoyment of A schedule property only. The averments in para 11 of the

plaint are totally false. The first plaintiff purchased under sale deed

dated 11-5-1968 from prior owner Rathinam Ammal only 'A' schedule

property and since 'A' schedule property was situated adjacent west of

Akkandi Chettiar manai, it has been rightly described in said sale deed as

west of Akkandi Chettiar manai. The first plaintiff has purchased under

sale deed only 'A' schedule property and she has been in possession and

enjoyment of 'A' schedule property only and she has perfected title to A

schedule property only by adverse possession also. The averments to the

contra in para 11 of plaint are totally false. Even in the partition deed

dated 09-07-1993, it is held that in 2nd defendant's family owner of 'A'

schedule property is derived to Arumugham Chettiar H/o Kailasam

Ammal. The averments in para 12 of plaint are not fully correct. It is true

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

that the managers of Chatram purchased ABCD property under sale deed

dated 28-7-1993 from Beerala Ammal and 2 others. By mistake in that

sale deed western boundary was wrongly described as Arumugham

Chettiar manai. Taking advantage of that wrong description, the plaintiff

wants to claim title to schedule property in 1st plaintiff's family. The first

plaintiff has forgotten the fact that in her sale deed dated 11-5-1968

western boundary was rightly described as Akkandy Chettiar manai. The

averments in para 13 of plaint are totally false. It is false to state that

Lakshmi Ammal has been under the care and protection of Rathinam

Ammal since she was residing at Thatiengarpettai. It is equally false to

state that after the demise of Lakshmi Ammal, Rathinam Ammal has

taken possession of 'A' schedule property for her share from Akkandy

Chettiar and others and she has been in enjoyment of 'A' schedule

property for many years more than the statutory period of limitation.

6.It is further stated that the averments in para 14 of plaint are

totally false. Pichal Chettiar never inherited 'A' schedule property from

her mother. It is equally false to state that on behalf of Pichai Chettiar,

the first plaintiff's husband has been enjoying the 'A' schedule property.

Pichai Chettiar has no title to 'A' schedule property. Pichal Chettiar has

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

no right and competency to sell 'A' schedule property to the 2nd plaintiff

under sale deed dated 02-09-1993. When Pichal Chettiar's mother

Rathinagiri Ammal sold 'A' schedule property under sale deed

11.05.1960 to Kailasam Ammal, the said Pitchai Chettiar knowing fully

well the contents of said sale deed, has attested the sale deed. In that sale

deed, it has been clearly stated that said property is situated adjacent west

of Akkandy Chettiar manai. Hence, A schedule property was already sold

by his mother to Kailasam under sale deed dated 11-05-1968. Hence, the

said Pichat Chettiar has no right to convey again same A schedule

property to the 2nd plaintiff under sale deed dated 02-09-1993. After

knowing the mistaken boundary recitals in sale deed dated 23-07-1993 in

favour of one Balasubramaniam and another trustee Pichal Chettiar, he

has created the sale deed in favour of the 2nd plaintiff under sale deed

dated 02-09-1993, as if he has got right to convey the A schedule

property again. The sale deed dated 02.09.1993 in favour of the 2nd

plaintiff is a void document. The said sale deed cannot confer any title

much less valid title in favour of the 2nd plaintiff in respect of A schedule

property. The 2nd plaintiff and his vendor have never been in enjoyment

of A schodule property at any point of time much less for more than the

statutory period of limitation and the plaintiff has no prescribed title to A

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

schedule property by adverse possession also. The B schedule property

was purchased by another Balasubramaniam and one Veerappa Chettiar

as trustees of Chatram under sale deed dated 01-12-1993 from

Sivamanikkam for Rs.3,500/ and trustees of said Chatram were put into

possession of B schedule property in pursuance of said sale deed. The

said vendor Sivamanikkan Chettiar in turn purchased said B schedule

property under sale deed dated 03.04.1959 from prior owner

Kamalathammal. Thus, another Balasubramaniyam and his vendors have

been in possession and enjoyment of B schedule property openly,

continuously, peacefully and uninterruptedly for more than several

statutory periods and they have in any event prescribed title to B

schedule property by adverse possession also.

7.On the basis of the above said pleas set out by the respective

parties, the following issues were framed by the Trial Court for

consideration:

8. Before the Trial Court, on the side of the plaintiffs, two

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

witnesses have been examined as P.W.1 and P.W.2 and 7 documents

have been marked as Ex.A1 to Ex.A7. On the side of the defendants, the

third defendant examined himself as D.W.1 and examined another

witnesses as D.W2 and D.W.3 and marked 5 documents as Ex.B1 to

Ex.B5.

9. The Trial Court, after considering the oral and documentary

evidence, decreed the suit as prayed for and dismissed the suit with

regard to mesne profits and directed the defendants 3 and 4 to remove the

construction upon C schedule property within a period of three months.

Aggrieved by this, the defendants filed the appeal in A.S.No.537 of 1999

on the file of the Subordinate Court, Trichy. The First Appellate Court,

by its Judgment dated 25.01.2002 allowed the appeal and set aside the

judgment and decree of the Trial Court. Aggrieved by this, the plaintiffs

filed the present second appeal.

10. While admitting the second appeal, this Court has formulated

the following substantial questions of law:-

“Whether the judgments and decrees of the Courts below are sustainable in law as they have not considered

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

the entire evidence to decide the issue and the relevant provisions of law applicable to the facts of the case?.”

11. The learned counsel for the appellants/plaintiffs submitted that

the finding of the First Appellate Court is erroneous and unsustainable

and it failed to give valid reason for reversing the judgement of the Trial

Court and ignored the boundaries mentioned in the documents Exs.A3,

A4 and A5 which are related to B schedule property. The First Appellate

Court overlooked the fact that Mookan Chettiar and Akkandi Chettiar are

pangalies and only due to the relationship Akkandi Chettiar was shown

as the owner of the eastern site in Ex.A5 sale deed. The First Appellate

Court failed to consider the fact that in the sale deed in favour of the

defendants 3 and 4 dated 28.07.1993 which was marked as

Ex.A7 /Ex.B1, the eastern boundary was shown as appellants property

which will clearly establish that the appellant has got title in respect of B

schedule property. The First Appellate Court failed to consider the fact

that in the document Ex.A3 and A4, eastern boundary was shown as the

property belonging to Mookan Chettiar family.

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

12. The learned counsel further submitted that even in Ex.B1, it is

mentioned that the eastern boundary in property belongs to Arumugam

Chettiar. DW1 also admitted in his evidence that Arumugam Chettiar

referred to in Ex.B1 is none else than the husband of 1st plaintiff. The

defendant has come up with faint explanation that their Eastern boundary

is mistakenly mentioned belong to 1st plaintiff. It is not acceptable for the

reason that DW1 has stated that he did not choose to rectify the error in

mentioning the boundary in Ex.A1 in spite of the fact that his vendor

Seevalammal is alive. If the misdescription of boundary is genuine, he

would have taken steps to rectify the same approaching his vendor. His

inaction is an ample proof that his claim of mistaken reference to Eastern

boundary is false and an afterthought. He further submitted that the

defendant has created Ex.B3 taking advantage of the fact that in Ex.A5

eastern boundary is referred to as land belong to Akkandi Chettiar. Since

the predecessor of the 1st plaintiff namely, Mookan Chettiar and Akkandi

Chettiar happened to be Pangaligals their names had been used

interchangeably while referring to properties on the Eastern side of the

plaintiffs' property. The above explanation offered by plaintiff merit

acceptance. Further, one of the witnesses examined as DW2 is none

other than grandson of Akkandi Chettiar. He has stated that extent of

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

Arumugam Chettiar's (Husband of first plaintiff and the father of the

second plaintiff) property is 24 feet on East West and he has been

enjoying the same for more than thirty years. More importantly, DW2 has

stated that his property is on the East of Arumugam Chettiar's property

and Sivamanickam Chettiar's property is on West of 24 feet enjoyed by

Arumugam Chettiar. The vendor of third defendant namely,

Sivamanickam examined as DW3 and he has stated that the property on

the east of his property belong to KailasamAmmal the 1st plaintiff and

further east of the 1st plaintiff's property alone belong to Akkandi

Chettiar. From the evidence of DW2 and DW3, it is clear that the

property purchased by the defendant from Seerammal and Sivamanickam

through Ex B1 and B3 are one and the same which has been shown as

'ABCD' in plaint plan. It is to be noted that the combined east-west

measurement of both A and B schedule as per A-5 and A-6 is 23 feet.

Exactly enjoyment of this extent by the plaintiff has been testified by

defendant side witness DW2. It is not uncommon in villages to identify a

family through a common eldest member/Ancestor. Hence, since both

Mookan Chettiar and Akkandi Chettiar were pangalis and Akkandi

chettiar happened to be an elder member, his name had been mentioned

in Ex.A5. When the factum of enjoyment of 24 feet on East West

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

between the land of Akkandi Chettiar GLIH and ABCD in plaint plan

has been established through the evidence of DW2, the First Appellate

Court ought to have confirmed the judgment of Trial Court. He further

submitted that the First Appellate Court instead of appreciating both

documentary and oral evidence in entirety chosen to consider Exs.A5 and

A6 alone and disregarding other documents. It is pertinent to note that

though five witnesses have been examined in this case, none of the

testimonies of witnesses were discussed by the First Appellant Court. It

is settled principle that the First Appellate Court shall give reasons for

not accepting the findings recorded by the Trial Court. Besides that the

First Appellate Court is duty bound to answer all issues framed by the

Trial Courts independently while revering the judgment. The finding of

the First Appellate Court that the boundaries mentioned in Ex.A5 and A6

are one and the same for reaching the conclusion that the properties

purchased by the plaintiff 1 and 2 are 'A' schedule alone is factually

erroneous. The First Appellate Court has failed to see that the eastern and

western boundaries mentioned in the said two documents are different.

The learned counsel further submitted that the consistent stand of the

defendant is that they have no claim over suit 'A' schedule and the

dispute is only with regard to 'B' schedule. This stand of the defendant is

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

also amplified in their evidence. The First Appellate Court ought to have

noted that the possession and enjoyment of both A and B schedule

properties by the plaintiffs have been established. Hence, the learned

counsel pleaded to allow the second appeal.

13. Though notice has been served on the respondents and their

name is also printed in the cause list, they have not appeared either in

person or through his counsel. Hence, this Court appointed

Mr.Narmadhan, Advocate, as Amicus curiae to assist the Court. Under

these circumstances, this Court after hearing the learned counsel for the

appellants, decided the second appeal.

14. I have considered the matter in the light of the submissions

made by the learned counsel for the appellants and perused the materials

available on records carefully.

15. A perusal of the records, it is noticed that the portion marked

as BCEF in the plaint plan ( marked Ex.A1) is the suit B schedule

property. The portion marked as EFGH in the plaint plan A1 is the suit

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

A schedule property.

16. Further, on perusal of the records, the fact reveals that

Kamatchiammal W/o Vaiyapuri Chettiar sold a portion of the property to

an extent of 15.28 cents in S.No.35 to Lakshmiammal W/o Mookan

Chettiar, on 06.06.1918, which is evidenced from Ex.A3 sale deed dated

06.06.1918. The description of property is mentioned as follows:-

18. Thereafter, the said Rathinammal sold the same property to

Kailasamammal, the plaintiff's wife, on 11.05.1968 by way of a

registered sale deed which is evidenced by Ex.A5. The description of

property is as follows:-

19.According to the plaintiffs, these sale deeds Exs.A3, A4 and A5

pertaining to the plaint B schedule property, which is denied by the

defendants. Further, on perusal of the records, it is noticed that Pitchai

Chettiar S/o Rathinammal sold a portion of the property on 02.09.1993

by way of a registered sale deed, which is evidenced as Ex.A6 sale deed

dated 02.09.1993. The above sale deeds Ex.A3, A4 and A5 are the

relevant to decide the case. Kamatchi Ammal W/o Vaiyapuri Chettiar

sold a portion of the property to the extent of 14½ cents east west and

28½ north south with boundary as mentioned supra, in which, western

boundary is mentioned as the property belong to the Kamatchi Ammal.

While selling the same property by Lakshmi Ammal to Rathinammal on

22.06.1955 by way of a registered sale deed (Ex.A4), the same extent

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

mentioned western boundary as though, she had property on the western

side, which is wrong.

20. It is a wrong discussion. Lakshmiammal may not have any

property on western side since she had sold entire property what she had

purchased from Kamatchi Ammal to Rathinammal. Therefore, the

description on the wester side in Ex.A4 sale deed dated 22.06.1955 is

wrong one.

21. Further, on perusal of records, it is noticed that Rathinammal

sold the property purchased by her from Lakshmiammal to Kailasammal

on 11.05.1968 by way of sale deed Ex.A5. In the sale deed,

Rathinammal sold entire property what she had purchased from

Lakshmiammal. Therefore, Rathinammal may not have any property in

that survey number. In such circumstances, the son of Rathinammal i.e.,

Pitchai Chettiar may not have nay property to sell to the second plaintiff

Shanmugam on 02.09.1993 by way of a sale deed (Ex.A6) pertaining to

A schedule property.

22. Further, the plaint allegation that after the death of Lakshmi

Ammal, Rathinammal had taken possession of A schedule property for

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

her share from Akkandi Chettiar Vaikara is not supported by any

evidence. Therefore, the plaint allegation in para 13 is not proved by the

plaintiffs. Under these circumstances, the First Appellate Court taking

note of the description of the property in the sale deed dated Ex.A4 dated

11.05.1968 has rightly come to the conclusion that the plaintiffs

purchased A schedule property alone and not B schedule property, which

is discussed by the First Appellate Court in para 10 of its Judgment. The

same is reproduced hereunder:-

23. In view of the above, the plaintiffs failed to prove that she is

having title over the B schedule property. Therefore, the First Appellate

Court rightly allowed the appeal and set aside the Judgment and Decree

of the trial Court. Therefore, the Judgment and Decree of the First

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis

Appellate Court is sustainable in law. The substantial question of law is

answered accordingly.

24. In the result, the Second Appeal fails and the same is

dismissed. No costs.
