Issues:
1. Validity of symbolical possession delivery to plaintiffs. 2. Defendants' right to assert title to the property. 3. Preclusion of defendants from asserting title due to failure to file suit under Order XXI Rule 63. 4. Effect of possession and title on property dispute. 5. Applicability of legal precedents to the present case. 6. Ownership rights of plaintiffs in the disputed property. Analysis: Issue 1: The judgment revolves around the validity of symbolical possession delivery to the plaintiffs. The trial court dismissed the suit citing the lack of valid transfer of possession to Mat Ram. However, the Additional District Judge reversed this finding, concluding that the plaintiffs did receive symbolical possession in accordance with the law. Issue 2: The defendants sought to defend their possession by claiming long-term occupancy of the property. However, the court rejected this argument, emphasizing that the plaintiffs had attached and purchased Amar Singh's share, which included the right to redeem half of the house. Issue 3: The defendants were precluded from asserting their title to the property due to their failure to file a suit under Order XXI Rule 63 after the dismissal of their objections. The court upheld this preclusion, stating that the defendants were barred from claiming ownership based on the sale deed rejected in the previous application. Issue 4: The judgment clarified that the defendants could not assert their title based on the sale deed dated 16-1-1933, as it was rejected in the earlier application. The court deemed the defendants as mortgagees under the 1925 document, emphasizing that the plaintiffs were entitled to half of the house in dispute, subject to the mortgage amount due. Issue 5: Several legal precedents were cited to support the court's decision, emphasizing the importance of following procedural rules such as filing a suit under Order XXI Rule 63. The court distinguished the cited cases from the present situation, highlighting the unique circumstances of the case at hand. Issue 6: The judgment concluded that the plaintiffs were entitled to half of the disputed property through partition, subject to the payment of Amar Singh's share of the mortgage amount. The case was remanded to the trial court for further proceedings and partition according to the judgment. In summary, the judgment addressed various legal complexities surrounding possession, title assertion, procedural requirements, and ownership rights in a disputed property, ultimately ruling in favor of the plaintiffs' entitlement to half of the house subject to mortgage obligations.
