Suit for specific performance of agreement to sell agricultural land - plaintiff paid substantial earnest money but agreement seemingly executed on blank stamp paper without plaintiff's signatures on first two pages - agreement terms irrational as earnest money disproportionately high compared to balance sale consideration - plaintiff's conduct questionable in parting with huge sum without security - courts below erred in decreeing suit based on fraudulent agreement - appeal allowed, judgments set aside.
