AFFIDAVIT

I, Smt. Venkatalakshmamma, W/o Peddaiah, D/o late Chakra Bhovi, Aged about 56 years, R/at Mallur Village, Solur Hobli, Magadi Taluk., do hereby solemnly state as follows:

1. That I am the plaintiff in this suit and I know the facts of this case.

2. That I the deponent state on oath that, the suit schedule lands bearing Sy. No. 123 measuring 1 acre 27 guntas, Sy. No. 18 measuring 3 acres 20 guntas and Sy. No. 6 measuring 2 acres 15 guntas were belonging to her father Chakra Bhovi. Sy. No. 123 measuring 1 acre 27 guntas and Sy. No. 6 measuring 2 acres 15 guntas were granted to late Chakra Bhovi. Whereas Sy. No. 18 measuring 3 acres 20 guntas was a tenanted land and tenancy was conferred in the name of late Chakra Bhovi by Land Tribunal in case No. LRF (S) 81/1981-82 dated 17.12.1981.

3. The deponent further submits that, the late Chakrabhovi left behind 5 sons and one daughter i.e., deponent Defendant No. 1 to 5 are sons of late Chakrabhovi and plaintiff is daughter of later Chakrabhovi. The defendant No. 1 to 5 after the death of the father of deponent created an unregistered Will dated 28.04.1992 without the knowledge of deponent and the signature of deponent was not taken on the said Will as a consenting witness and it was never executed by father of deponent. It is a concocted and created document being an unregistered Will, no party much less defendant No. 1 to 5 cannot rely upon such document.

4. The deponent further submits that, apart from above lands the father of deponent left behind two vacant sites measuring 10 X 50 feet and 44 X 55 feet at Mallur Village. In one of the site house was constructed and defendant No. 1 to 5 are residing. The deponent has produced family genealogy which clearly discloses her status in the joint family. The defendants falsely represented before Tahasildar and got mutated the landed properties in their favour and without the knowledge of deponent. The deponent approached Hon’ble Assistant Commissioner, Ramanagara for setting aside the said mutation entries in the names of only the sons of late Chakrabhovi. The deponent being the daughter of late Chakrabhovi is entitle for 1/6th share in all the plaint schedule properties including landed properties. Thus the action of defendants is adverse to the interest of deponent. The deponent approached the defendant No. 1 to 5 claiming her share but defendants denied her share and stated that, late Chakrabhovi executed Will in their favour as such the deponent has no share in the Plaint Schedule Properties. Actually the deponent approached defendant No. 1 to 5 claiming her share in the first week of August 2016. All the records previously standing in the name of late Chakrabhovi the father of deponent. The deponent producing relevant documents and also family genealogy. This plaint may be read along with recitals of above documents as part of these pleadings. The father of deponent late Chakrabhovi died on 14.07.2003 and Death Certificate is produced herewith. During the lifetime of late Chakrabhovi and even after his death defendant No. 1 to 5 and deponent enjoying all the properties jointly. Even after death of late Chakrabhovi the plaintiff and defendant No. 1 to 5 enjoying the properties jointly. The husband of defendant No. 5 died. The orders passed by various authorities clearly goes to show that, the said properties belongs to joint family of deponent and defendant No. 1 to 5. These defendants fraudulently created the Will on 28.04.1992. It is unregistered document and does not create any right, title or interest over the any immovable properties in favour of defendant No. 1 to 5. The revenue authorities ought not to have acted upon such understood Will. No notice was served upon deponent at the time of passing orders by revenue authorities on the basis of the said Will. The deponent filed separate proceedings before learned Assistant Commissioner, Ramanagara against orders passed by Tahasildar in M.R. No. H62/2014-15 dated 29.06.2015. The RTC extracts discloses the name of late Chakrabhovi who is no other than father of deponent.

5. The deponent humbly submits that, as the records now stands in the name of defendants as such they are finding out prospective purchasers and also trying to take loans by mortgaging the landed and other properties. If defendants are successful in alienating, creating or dealing with plaint schedule properties in any manner then the plaintiff has to run from pillar to post as she will be involved in multiplicity of litigations. Prima-facie the records goes to show that, she is having 1/6th share in all the plaint schedule properties in the capacity of daughter of original owner late Chakrabhovi. The balance of convenience also lies in favour of deponent. If ex parte temporary injunction is not granted in favour of plaintiff the defendant would be put to irreparable loss which cannot be compensated in terms of money.

Hence this affidavit.

You need to file partition suit in court for the same. Limitation will be recurring in nature for the same.

Depends upon the number of witness and documents to be exhibit.

But, take around two years minimum.

If one of the share holders is not ready or willing to partition the property then you have no choice than to file a suit for partition and separate possession of your legitimate share in the jointly held property.

You can discuss with a local lawyer and proceed on his advice on all such further issues.

The partition suit may run for years but it is inevitable and unavoidable.

It should not deter your determination.
