Brief averments of written statements:- 3
5.defendant appeared through his counsel filed written statement and denied material allegations in plaint which are not specifically admitted and claimed the plaintif to put strict proof of all allegations.
6.Defendant submits that plaintif suppressed real facts filed suit with false allegations further contends that plaintif has no right title and interest over plaint schedule property she occupied an extent of 72 sq.yards house site of defendants from his 0.8 cents extent of property.

9.Heard both learned counsels perused entire record along with oral and documentary evidence.
10.Learned counsel for plaintif argued that plaintif is absolute owner of an extent of 314.6 sq.yards of property she surveyed her property by Mandal surveyor and affixed the boundary stones defendant tried to remove boundary stones and trespass into the suit schedule property to prove her case she examined herself and filed documents EX.A1 to A4 and also examined village elders PW.2 to PW.4. Defendant not filed any oral and documentary evidence to show that defendant have property near plaint schedule property and also fails to prove R.S.No.84/1 sub divided into 84/1A and 84/1B Defendant also not paying tax for vacant site. Sale deed schedule not showing plaintif as one of the neighbor to his property. During cross examination DW.1 admitted that he purchased his property without survey and no link documents field by the defendant. But plaintif surveyed her land and PWs.2 to 4 oral evidence supports her case. Hence, entitled for relief claimed.
11.Per contra defendant counsel vehemently argued that plaintif suppressed the real facts come to court with un clean hands and she also suppressed link documents as she was not filed the same to suppress the fact that her vendors not having property an extent of 314 sq.yards they have only 240 sq.yards and R.S.NO.84/1 subdivided and total extent of R.S.No.84/1 is 13 cents only. To prove the same defendant examined DW.2 VRO and revenue records EX.B4 to B8 proves the sub division, vendor of plaintif possessed only 5 5 cents in 84.1/A. Plaintif trying to grab defendant’s property and defendant is a neigbouring owner as per the plaint pleadings and plaintif fails to prove title and ownership over 6 ½ cents, tax receipts not proves extent of property.
Further argued that defendant is an old man not in a position to remove boundary stones. Hence, plaintif has no cause of action fails to prove her case.
Hence, not entitled for relief.
Issue No.1 and 2:
12.It is the case of plaintif that, he is the absolute owner of 314.6 Sq.yards of vacant site situated in R.S.NO. 84/1 At Pydurupaadu Village, Vijayawada
Rural, Krishna District. To substantiate her case she examined herself as P.W.1 filed her evidence affidavit reiterated plaint averments and marked Ex.A1 to
Ex.A4. Ex.A1 is registered sale deed executed in favour of plaintif vide document no. 3379/2014 dated 02.07.2014. On perusal of Ex.A1 it is showing that plaintif purchased an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards of vacant site in R.S.No.
84/1 from her vendor’s legal heirs Julapalli Subba Rao for valuable consideration of Rs. 3,15,000/- on 02.07.2014, registered before
Ibrahmipatnam S.R.O. It is the further case of plaintif that, after her purchase she raised Zink Sheeted shed obtained electricity service and paying house taxes in her name. To show the same Ex.A3 receipt issued by the southern power distribution company towards application fee for allotting connection filed. Ex.A2 are tax receipts for assessment number.593 filed. Ex.A4 is encumbrance certificate dated 30.02.2016. There is no dispute that, plaintif purchased suit schedule property with boundaries specified in Ex.A1 and also she obtained electricity connection and raised shed and paying property tax.
But the dispute is that as per the defendant plaintif purchased only an extent of 5 cents of property but not 6 ½ cents as contended by her. She purchased only 240 Sq.yards and also disputing R.S.Number. Defendants contending that suit schedule property situated in R.S.No. 84/1A. The R.S.No. 84/1 was sub divided into 84/1A and 84/1B. Defendants properties situated in R.S.No. 84/1B 6 in an extent of 8 cents. Per contra learned counsel for plaintif vehemently opposed sub division of R.S.No. 84/1.
13.Defendant to substantiate his case examined himself as D.W.1 and marked Ex.B1 to Ex.B3. Ex.B1 is original sale deed of defendant dated 11.09.2015 and Ex.B2 is office copy of M.R.O letter to collector, Krishna District
dated 17.05.2016. Ex.B3 is office copy of endorsement issued by Collector to
the defendant. In his support examined V.R.O Pydurupaadu as D.W.2 and marked through her Ex.B4 to Ex.B8. Ex.B4 is copy of Re Survey Register (R.S.R) compared with original with regard to R.S.No. 84. Ex.B5 is copy of detailed survey list of joint register holders. Ex.B6 is copy of pattdar Adanagal for
R.S.No. 84/1A. Ex.B7 is copy of pattdar Adangal for R.S.No. 84/1B. EX.B8 is
F.M.B. It is the main contention of defendant that, R.S.No. 84/1 is sub divided and defendant purchased his property in R.S.No. 84/1B, an extent of 8 cents.
He field Ex.B1 original registered sale deed on perusal of said document it clearly revealing defendant purchased the property an extent of 8 cents i.e.,
384. 02 Sq,.yards of vacant site in R.S.No. 84/1B from his vendor Rangeneni
Seetamma for consideration of Rs. 3,88,000/- on 11.09.2014.
14.Plaintif came to court contending that she purchased an extent of 314.6
Sq.yards of site in R.S.No. 84/1 and defendant trying to encroach into her property. So, it is the burden of plaintif to prove her case that she purchased an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards by cogent documentary evidence. Plaintif contending that after purchase she measured the land by surveyor paying challan to M.R.O. surveyor surveyed her land and fixed the boundary stones in the presence of village elders. But defendant who is a neighboring owner encroaching into the suit schedule property by removing the Survey stones. To show that she surveyed her land she examined P.W.2 to P.W.4 as per the plaintif they are village elders in their presence surveyor measured her land and fixed the boundary stones. Plaintif in her plaint fails to mention P.W.2 to 7
P.W.4 names that they are present at the time of surveying the land. Even she was not mentioned their names in her evidence affidavit and also in cross eamination. Further plaintif not filed either copy of challan which she paid amount to M.R.O for appointment of surveyor and even not filed surveyor report to prove her case and further not examined the said surveyor who surveyed the land, which creates doubt on plaintif contention.
15.On perusal of testimony of P.W.2 to P.W.4 they filed their evidence affidavit in same lines supporting the plaintif case that she purchased an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards and she surveyed her site in their presence and defendant trying to encroach into the schedule property illegally by removing boundary stones. During the cross examination of P.W.2 learned counsel for defendant elicited that P.W.2 is a relative of plaintif’s husband and when plaintif and her husband shifted to Vijayawada and running hotel business at
Krishna Lanka P.W.1 purchased suit schedule property and he was not present at the time of sale transaction and he do not know link documents and he never gone through the title deed of suit schedule property and he do not remember date, month and year of survey conducted to suit schedule property and he do not know survey number of suit schedule property. P.W.3 deposed in his cross examination that, his native place is Vadlamaanu Village, Guntur
District he shifted to Pydurupaadu Village 7 years back he was not seen link documents of suit schedule property and he was not remember date, month and year of survey of schedule property other than the day of survey he never visited schedule property and he do not know contents of his evidence affidavit. P.W.4 deposed that he was using plaintif’s cattle shed at
Pydurupaadu for last 3 years without rent and he worked as a plaintif’s tractor driver for 4 years and he never seen link documents and title documents of suit schedule property and he do not know contents of link documents and extent of property mentioned in link documents he also do not know contents of his 8 evidence affidavit. He went to suit schedule property twice 1st time when survey was conducted and 2nd time when defendant tried to tresspass into schedule property. P.W.4 also deposed that he do not know date, month and year of survey conducted to the schedule property and also date of trespass by the defendant.
16.On perusal of testimony of P.W.2 to P.W.4 it is clear that they are all interested persons relatives and worker of P.W.1 and her husband they are not village elders they are all planted witnesses to support plaintif’s case that she surveyed land and fixed the boundary stones. No photographs filed to show that boundary stones are fixed and no cogent documents filed that she surveyed the land. Evidence of P.W.2 to P.W.4 is not trust worthy all the witnesses coherently deposed that they never saw link documents and title documents and they do not know extent of property mentioned in documents either in link documents or in title document of plaintif. Furthermore, they are deposing that they are present at the time of survey and went to suit schedule property on the day of survey only. But they fails to mention when the property was surveyed. Even plaintif also fails to mention when she was surveyed her property. So, it probabalises that she never surveyed her property. Plaintif fails to prove her vendors are possessed with an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards by filing link documents. Further plaintif fails to prove extent of property as she suppressed the material documents and material witnesses i.e., not examined either her vendors or surveyor of Mandal revenue officer to prove her contention that she purchased 314.6 Sq.yards.
17.It is the contention of the defendant that, plaintif’s vendor not possessed with an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards. They only possessed 240 Sq.yards to that extent during cross examination P.W.1 denied the suggestion. Further denied the suggestion that R.S.No. 84/1 is not in existence it is sub divided into 84/1A and 84/1B and to suppress sub division she was not produced R.O.R record. To 9 support his case D.W.1 filed Ex.B4 to Ex.B8 which are copies of R.O.R, list of joint registrar holders and pattadar Adangals of R.S.No. 84/1A and 84/1B along with F.M.B. D.W.2 who is a V.R.O came to court to give evidence on witness summons clearly deposed that as per record the R.S.No. 84/1 is an extent of 13 cents only and said R.S.No. 84/1 divided into 84/1A and 84/1B and the R.S.No.
84/1A is an extent of 5 cents only and in R.S.No. 84/1B is 8. As per record 84/1B pattadar name is Rangeneni Sittamma who is vendor of defendant and as per record there is no mention of pattadar name for R.S.No. 84/1A. Even after notice plaintif counsel not cross examined V.R.O and not filed any objections with regard to documents and evidence of D.W.2. Which shows that plaintif has no objection and only to suppress the actual extent as contended by learned counsel for defendant with knowledge in plaintif’s title document they mentioned R.S.No. 84/1 only but not 84/1A.
18.During cross examination of D.W1 learned counsel for plaintif tried to elicited that defendant not filed link documents and he purchased property after purchase of plaintif and plaintif’s name not shown as one of the boundary owner and pen written name shown in Ex.B1 is written by defendant himself so it does not contain initial of registrar D.W.1 in his cross examination admitted that his property and plaintif’s property situated in diferent R.S numbers and for both, vendors are diferent and his property situated in
R.S.No. 84/1B and he purchased an extent of 8 cents and he was not surveyed his land at the time of purchase. Ex.B2 is application given to the collector by the defendant to survey his land as plaintif trying to encroaching into her property. Ex.B3 stating that plaintif encroached an extent of 1 ½ cents land denied the suggestion that, Ex.B3 stating there is no encroachment at all.
Denied the suggestion that he removed the survey stones and police called him 20.09.2016.

19. As seen from the documents filed by defendant it clearly proving that
R.S.No. 84/1 sub divided into 84/1A and 84/1B and plaintif’s vendor is in possession of 8 cents prior to the alienation of property and same was sold to the defendant and as per the Ex.B6 84/1A is only an extent of 5 cents. As per the documents and evidence of defendant witnesses D.W.1 and D.W.2 and as per Ex.B2 and Ex.B3 M.R.O also gave endorsement under Ex.B2 that on perusal of both registered documents total extent of 14 ½ cents were registered under two documents but as per Adangal in R.S.No. 84/1A 5 cents and in R.S.No.
84/1B 8 cents total 13 cents of site only in existence on ground. So, there is a dispute between both parties an extent of 1 ½ cents. Under Ex.B3 also M.R.O gave endorsement that both documents i.e., plaintif and defendant’s documents showing registration of excess land i.e., 1 ½ cents more than land in existence in S.R.No. 84/1. So, it is civil dispute they cannot decide the same.
20.As seen from the overall discussion as per the documents Ex.B1 to Ex.B8 it is crystal clear that defendant purchased an extent of 8 cents in R.S.No.
84/1B from his vendor Rangeneni Sitamma who is possessed 8 cents as per
Adangals and R.S.R. But plaintif fails to prove her case that R.S.No. 84/1 not sub divided and she purchased her site in 84/1 only an extent of 6 ½ cents. As per the record total extent of property in R.S.No. 84/1B is 8 cents and total extent was purchased by defendant. As plaintif fails to file her link documents and fails to examine her vendor which adversely efects her case that she suppressed intentionally material evidence to show that R.S.No.84/1 not divided and she purchased the 6 ½ cents. Hence, plaintif fails to prove her case that she is absolute owner of an extent of 314.6 Sq.yards and defendant trespassed into her property. Hence, she was not entitled for suit claim as prayed for Issues 1 and 2 answered accordingly against plaintif in favour of defendant.
