DATED: _______ (BRANCH OFFICER)
SYNOPSIS
The instant Petition is a limited challenge to the impugned final order and
judgement dated 16.12.2024, wherein the Hon’ble High Court while upholding
the rights of the sisters (Plaintiffs in Suit No. 45/2013) in the suit property under
Section 8(1) of the Hindu Succession Act, 1956, has not recognized the
identical right of Late Dhankunwar, the widow of the deceased owner of the suit
property. It is submitted that once the Ld. Trial Court and the 1 st Appellate
Court came to the conclusion that the will produced by the Petitioners herein
have not been proved in accordance with law and the all the legal heirs of the
deceased “Bhagona” are entitled to equal shares of the property, being their
class-I heir, the sale deed executed by “Dhankunwar”/ mother of the Petitioners
and Respondent No.__to__&___, dated ___________.
LIST OF DATES AND EVENTS
2011-13 In Civil Suit No. 45A/2013, Ms. Parvati and Ms. Bhankunwar, the
Plaintiffs filed civil suit for declaration of title, and permanent
injunction pleading inter alia that Bhagona was the owner and in
possession of 2/3 share in the disputed land whereas the remaining
1/3 share was of Ramchanda. The plaintiffs are the daughters of
Bhagona, whereas Narayanju, Mannulal, Kamal Singh (Plaintiffs
in Civil No. 45A/2013), Jagram and Ms. Dhankunwar Wd/o
Bhagona are the other class I heirs of Bhagona and thus, all of
them have 1/7th share each. After the death of Bhagona, the
defendants no. 1 to 5 got their names mutated in the revenue
records without the information and consent of the plaintiffs.
However, it was pleaded that plaintiffs are in joint cultivating
possession of the land in dispute. Furthermore, the defendants no.1
to 4 also got a sale deed executed from defendant no. 5 which is
null and void to the extent of share of plaintiffs. Now, the
defendants have started alienating the land and defendants no. 1 to
4 are claiming that plaintiffs have no right or title in the land in
dispute. The defendant no. 3 has alienated one plot forming part of
142/5, admeasuring 3000 sq. ft. by sale deed dated 16-6- 2011 and
defendant no. 3 has alienated another plot forming part of 123/1
admeasuring 50 sq. ft. to defendants no. 6 to 9 by registered sale
deed dated 16-6-2011 and another plot of 50 sq. ft. of land forming
part of 123/1 admeasuring 60 sq. ft. has been alienated to
defendants no. 10 to 11. All the sale deeds have been executed
without getting the partition done. It was also claimed that the fact
of execution of Will by Bhagona in favour of defendants no. 1 to 5
is also incorrect. The will dated 10-10-1978 is a forged document.
The mutation was not done on the basis of Will, in fact the
defendants no. 1 to 5 had got their names mutated in connivance
with Settlement officers.
The defendants no. 1,2,4 and 5 filed their written statement and
claimed that Bhagona had executed a Will during his life time. The
plaintiffs do not have 1/7th share in the property. Bhagona had
executed the Will after understanding the same and he was hale
and hearty. The defendant no. 5 had executed the sale deed after
receiving full consideration amount. The answering defendants are
not alienating any plot. The plaintiffs were never in possession of
land and rights and title of the plaintiffs were never denied. The
defendants no. 3 and 6 to 11 filed their written statement and also
denied the plaint averments.
Similarly, in Civil Suit No. 44A of 2013, it was the case of the
Petitioners herein that Bhagona was the owner of the property in
dispute. Bhagona had executed a will and the same was in the
knowledge of the Plaintiffs in Civil Suit No. 45A(Ms. Parvati and
Ms. Bhakunwar). The Petitioners herein had already given certain
lands to their sisters in their marriage as their shares, since a four
lane road had been being constructed, the sisters had become
dishonest. It was also pleaded that the Defendant No.1 in the suit,
who is also brother of the Plaintiffs with malafide intentions had
sold certain piece of land by sale deed dated 16.06.2011 to other
persons who had also been impleaded as party to the suit.
21.03.2017 The Ld. Trial Court after recording evidence of parties, decreed the
Civil Suit No. 45A/2012 and it was declared that Ms. Parvati, Ms.
Bhankunwar, Narayan, Manu, Jagaram, Kamal Singh and
Dhankunwar have 1/7th share in survey no. 69/1,123/1,124,142/1,
142/5. Permanent injunction was also issued against the defendants
to the effect that without getting the aforesaid land partitioned, no
alienation shall take place. It was also decreed that sale deed dated
16-6-2011 executed in favour of Narayan Singh, Awadhlal, Manoj
Kumar, Dileep Kumar and Rameshwar is null and void to the
extent of share of plaintiffs Ms. Parvati and Ms. Bhankumar.
Similarly, Civil Suit No. 44A/203 was decided by holding that
Appellants, Jagram, Ms. Parvati and Ms. Bhankunwar have 1/7th
share in the disputed property.
23.10.2017 It is submitted that the Petitioners herein preferred 1 st Appeal
No.124/2017& 125/2017 against the judgment and decree dated
31.07.2018.
31.07.2018 The Ld. 1st Appellate Court dismissed the said Appeals on similar
grounds and upheld the judgment and decree dated 21.03.2017.
The Ld. 1st Appellate Court also held that sale of 1/5 th share by
“Dhankunwar”, the mother of the Petitioners herein, was illegal
and hence is set aside. It is submitted that both the Ld. Trial Court
as well as the 1st Appellate Court failed to appreciate the law that
share in the property received by a woman under section 8 of
Hindu Succession Act, becomes her self-acquired property and
hence if not 1/5th, then “Dhankunwar” had 1/7th share in the
property and hence if the sale deed executed by her becomes void
only to that extent only and the Petitioners along with Respondent
No.__Jagram had ____share in the property.
10.09.2018 The Petitioners filed Second Appeal No. 2126/2018 & Second
Appeal No. 2070/2018 against the judgement and decree dated
31.07.2018, passed by the Ld. 1st Appellate Court. A true copy of
the Second Appeal No. 2126/2018, dated 10.09.2018, is marked
and annexed herewith as ANNEXURE-P/(Page No.___to___).
16.12.2024 The Hon’ble High Court dismissed the said appeals on the ground
that the Plaintiffs/Petitioners herein have failed to prove in
accordance with law and further that the concurrent findings
arrived by the two courts below could not have been interfered
with as per the settled law.

To,
The Hon’ble Chief Justice of India
And His Companion Judges of
Hon’ble Supreme Court of India.
The Humble Petition on behalf of the Petitioner above named.
MOST RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:
1. That the Petitioner is filing the instant Special Leave Petition under Art
136 of the Constitution of India being aggrieved from the impugned final
order dated 10.03.2022, passed by the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature
at Allahabad in First Appeal From Order No. 2008 of 2005, wherein the
Hon’ble High Court upheld the order passed by the Ld. MACT,
Chitrakoot, whereby the claims for compensation under different heads
filed the Petitioner were rejected on the ground that the “permanent
disability certificate” produced by the Petitioner seems doubtful and the
Petitioner also failed to prove the medical bills in as much he produced
mere photocopies of the bills and no admission or discharge paper was
filed on the record to prove his treatment.
2. QUESTION OF LAW
a) Whether the Hon’ble High Court was correct in upholding the
decision of the Ld. MACT?
b) Whether the Hon’ble High Court correct in negating the Disability
Certificate primarily on the ground that original of the X-Ray report
and medical bills was not available on the record.
c) Whether the both the Ld. MACT & the Hon’ble High Court
committed a factual error by not giving directions for constitution of
Medical Board to adjudicate the issue of “Permanent Disability
Certificate”?
d) Whether the Hon’ble High Court as well as the Ld. MACT committed
a manifest error by rejecting the prayer of the Petitioner regarding
reimbursement of Rs. 1,60,000/- towards medical bills on the ground
of not producing original bills on record?
e) Whether the Hon’ble High Court as well as the Ld. MACT failed to
appreciate that once PW1 has appeared in the witness box and has
proved the disability certificate, absence of X-ray report on the file
does not render the document itself inadmissible?
3. DECLARATION IN TERMS OF RULE 2(2)
That the Petitioners states that no other petition seeking leave to appeal
has been filed by her against the impugned judgment and final order
10.03.2022 passed by the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
in First Appeal From Order No. 2008 of 2005.
4. DECLARATION IN TERMS OF RULE 4
Annexure-P/__ to P/__ along with the Special Leave are true copies of
pleadings/documents which formed part of the record of the case in the
Hon’ble High Court against whose order the leave to appeal is sought for
in this petition.
5. GROUNDS
In the present petition, leave to appeal is sought on the following amongst
other grounds, which are set out hereinafter without prejudice to one
another:
a) Because the judgment dated 10.03.2022 passed by Hon’ble High
Court of Judicature at Allahabad in First Appeal From Order No.
2008 of 2005is bad in the eye of law, not sustainable and is liable
to be set-aside.
b) Because the Hon’ble High Court committed an error of law as
well as in facts while negating the Disability Certificate primarily
on the ground that original of the X-Ray report and medical bills
was not available on the record.
c) Because the both the Ld. MACT & the Hon’ble High Court
committed a factual error by not giving directions for constitution
of Medical Board to adjudicate the issue of “Permanent Disability
Certificate.
d) Because the Hon’ble High Court as well as the Ld. MACT
committed a manifest error by rejecting the prayer of the
Petitioner regarding reimbursement of Rs. 1,60,000/- towards
medical bills on the ground of not producing original bills on
record.
e) Because the Hon’ble High Court as well as the Ld. MACT failed
to appreciate that once PW1 has appeared in the witness box and
has proved the disability certificate, absence of X-ray report on the
file does not render the document itself inadmissible.
f) Because the Hon’ble High Court failed to appreciate that the
Petitioner sustained injuries in the accident, is an admitted fact.
Once the doctor who has examined the Petitioner and signed over
the disability certificate gives evidence in support of the disability
certificate, nothing more is required to prove the disability.
g) It is pertinent to mention herein that both the Hon’ble High Court
as well as the Ld. MACT have rejected the claim of the Petitioner
on the ground that the very permanent disability is doubtful as no
X-ray report was produced on record which is the basis of the
disability certificate.
h) Because the Hon’ble High Court did not appreciate the fact that
though the X-ray report was not available on record yet, untainted
and unblemished injury reports were available on the record
proves that immediately after the accident, the right leg of the
Petitioner was frozen.
i) Because the Hon’ble High Court should have appreciated the fact
that the PW83(C ) , Dr. AK Mohan, who is an Orthopaedic
Specialist has clearly stated in his deposition that the permanent
disability was due to freezing of the knee and the pelvis only.
j) Because so far as photocopies of medical bills and documentary
evidence regards admission and discharge of the Petitioner in Priti
Hospital , Allahabad is concerned, it is stated that as the Petitioner
was not subjected to cross-examination in this regard as such the
Petitioner had no opportunity to explain the circumstances under
which he was not able to produce the documents.
k) Because in any case if the Ld. MACT had any doubts regarding
the permanent disability of the Petitioner, the same could have
well been examined by constituting a medical board in this regard.
But both the Ld. MACT as well as the Hon’ble High Court
proceeded on mere assumptions and held that the very permanent
disability certificate was doubtful.
l) Because the Ld. MACT being a fact-finding court had the
opportunity to constitute a medical board regarding the claim of
permanent disability, however the Ld. MACT completely lost the
opportunity and proceeded on the basis of mere assumption that
the Petitioner being a doctor colluded with other doctors to get
false and fabricated documents prepared.
6. GROUNDS FOR INTERIM RELIEF
Petitioner has set out all the relevant facts in detail in the accompanying
list of dates and the Petitioner shall crave leave to refer to and rely upon
the same as if incorporated herein verbatim for the sake of brevity.
7. MAIN PRAYER
It is most respectfully prayed that this Hon’ble Court may be pleased to:
a) Grant special leave to appeal against the impugned judgment and final
order dated 10.03.2022 passed by the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature
at Allahabad in First Appeal From Order No. 2008 of 2005.
b) Pass such further or other order or orders as may be deemed fit and
proper in the facts and circumstances of the case and in the interest of
justice;
8. PRAYER FOR INTERIM RELIEF
It is most respectfully prayed that this Hon’ble Court may be pleased to:
a) ad-interim ex-parte grant of stay to the Petitioner during pendency of the
present Petition arising out of final order dated 10.03.2022 passed by the
Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Allahabad in First Appeal From
Order No. 2008 of 2005(Under Section 163 of the Motor Vehicle Act)
b) Pass such further or other order or orders as may be deemed fit and
proper in the facts and circumstances of the case and in the interest of
justice;
AND FOR THIS ACT OF KINDNESS, THE PETITIONER AS IN DUTY
BOUND, SHALL EVER PRAY.
