NANULAL Vs. GANGASINGH

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE appellant Nanulal brought a suit against the respondents for damages amounting to Rs. 5'jo/-for wrongly demolishing his Kham Guari (compound with houses all around) and for possession of the land forming the site of the said Guari situated in village Mundro.

(2.) THE plaintiff's suit is that he is the son of one Mahadeo deceased who was the owner of the Guari in suit consisting of several Kacha houses and a Bara behind the Guari. He only paid Rs. 1/10/- per annum as Peshkash to the defendants. Four or five months prior to the institution of the suit the plaintiff with his mother shifted to the house of Ganga Sahai, another son of Mahadeo who had gone in adoption to some other family and the houses in suit were locked by him with his goods inside. About 4 days before the suit the defendants got the houses demolished, recovered the material and the goods inside the houses & started new constructions inspite of the plaintiff's protest. THE plaintiff therefore prayed for demolition of new constructions, possession of the site and Rs. 500/- as damages for the demolished houses.
