Gyarsi Devi, by a sale deed dated 7-8-1962 for a sum of Rs. 6,000/ -. The plaintiff being a co -sharer in the house had a preferential right of preemption as against the vendee, Smt. Gyarsi Devi who had no share in the said Haveli. It was further asserted in the plaint that the amount of Rs. 6,000/ - stated in the sale deed was fictitious, and in fact, only Rs. 4,000/ - were paid but since in the sale deed it had been shown that Rs. 4,500/ - were paid in the presence of Registrar, the plaintiff was prepared to pre -empt the property for a sum of Rs. 4,500/ - and therefore, the present suit was filed for a decree of pre -emption against the defendants on payment of Rs. 4,500/ -.

(3.) DEFENDANT Nos. 3 to 5 also filed a similar written statement, supporting the defendant No. 1.
