 Limitation---Inheritance of tenancy rights---Mutation, assailing of---Predecessor-in-interest of petitioners/plaintiffs assailed mutations sanctioned in years 1935 and 1937 in favour of predecessor-in-interest of respondents / defendants--- Suit was decreed by Trial Court but Lower Appellate Court dismissed the suit for being barred by limitation---Validity---First mutation in question was sanctioned under S. 20 (b) of Colonization of Government Lands (Punjab) Act, 1912, thereafter other mutation was sanctioned when mother of predecessor-in-interest of petitioners/ plaintiffs contracted second marriage in light of S. 21(b) of Colonization of Government Lands (Punjab) Act, 1912---Both the mutations were sanctioned in accordance with the law applicable upon the tenancy rights of father of predecessor-in-interest and the predecessor-in-interest of petitioners/ plaintiffs, was rightly excluded from the inheritance---Public interest required that there should be an end to the litigation---Whoever wished to dispute presumption of co-incidents of facts and right must do so within the period provided by law, otherwise, his right if any would be forfeited as a penalty for such neglect---Law required that persons aggrieved by any order of an authority must come to the Court and could take recourse to legal remedies with due diligence.
