1. It appears on the basis of the said decree only the settlement records was cancelled. The title of your father is still untouched.

2. Since your father was bona fide owner of the said property without notice the decree granted by sukla das isn't binding on your father.

3. Since physical possession is still under your father, he faces no immediate threat.

4. On this ground you can challenge the decision of high court before the supreme court in SLP.

5. Feel free to contact me if you wish to file SLP in supreme court.

What is your query?

You have narrated the story of what has happened but have not stated what relief you seek by posting this query.

What is the status of the property now.

Whether your father handed over possession or the opposite property has filed an execution petition and taken possession through court?

You may revert with details and the proper query as well.

1. Since the appeals before the HC have failed the only and last legal remedy for your father is to move the Supreme Court through a SLP. Without perusing the case papers it is not possible to advise. So consult a lawyer with the complete set of documents.

2. The limitation to file the SLP is 90 days.
