THE respondent had filed a suit against the petitioner for recovery of possession and mesne profits claiming himself to be the owner of the first floor of the property No. H-21, Kailash Colony, New Delhi on the basis of a 'will' dated 6th February, 1999 executed by Smt. Ishar Kaur, mother of parties, who expired on 23rd December, 2001.

(3.) IN the WS, defendant admitted execution of the 'will' by mother of parties, but claimed that parties to the suit and their brother Maninder Pal singh were having their business and a residential house at Alwar and at the time of death of mother of parties, the ground floor of Kailash Colony house was in tenancy of the tenant. He claimed that the ground floor of Alwar house was constructed in the year 1981 with the funds provided by him as well as by their mother and brother N. P.
