Article 65 Limitation Act | Adverse Possession Claim Fails Without Hostile, Open, and Continuous Possession : Chhattisgarh HC

Chhattisgarh High Court dismisses an adverse possession claim, ruling that 33 years of land cultivation alone is insufficient without proof of hostile, open, and continuous possession acknowledging the true owner’s title. The judgment reinforces that mere physical occupation does not extinguish original ownership under Article 65 of the Limitation Act.
