Cryptic and cursory approach of High Court as first appellate court is not sustainable. Remand to first appellate court to determine the matter afresh, not warranted in the instant cae. The suit was instituted more than three decades ago; evidence discussed by trail court is neither disputed nor demolished by respondent, as such there was no good reason before the Supreme court to remand the matter to first appellate court.
