India Current Affairs 2012. The Supreme Court of India ruled that one cannot acquire title to a property only because he or she had been allowed to stay in the premises for long

The Supreme Court of India in the third week of March 2012 ruled that one cannot acquire title to a property only because he or she had been allowed to stay in the premises for long. The apex court directed the courts to deal firmly with those involving innocent owners in prolonged real estate litigation.  A three-judge bench including justices Dalveer Bhandari, Deepak Verma and HL Dattu gave the ruling.


The bench also set fresh guidelines that caretakers, servants and watchman do not acquire property merely because of its possession by them for several years.
