As per case facts, an appeal was filed against lower court judgments affirming a Title Suit decision. Appellants argued the suit was barred by the Assam Tenancy Act, 1971, and ... that the plaintiff failed to prove possession or pay court fees to challenge a sale deed. They claimed their predecessor acquired the land. Respondents asserted that a Final Khatian, issued in their name in 1975, established their occupancy tenancy over Government Khas land, making the sale deed by defendant No.4 invalid as the vendor lacked title to transfer. The question arose whether the lower courts were correct in finding the registered sale deed null and void while also holding the respondent/plaintiff to be a tenant under the Assam Temporary Settled Areas Tenancy Act, 1971. Finally, this Court found that the unchallenged Khatian confirmed the plaintiff's occupancy over Government Khas land. As the land was Khas, only tenancy rights could be transferred, and the defendant's vendor had no right to transfer title. Thus, the lower courts' decision declaring the sale deed null and void and upholding the plaintiff's tenancy rights was correct, dismissing the appeal.
