General Knowledge (judicial) Science & Technology

According to “Doctrine of Relation Back”, although communication regarding partition might be received by coparcener on different dates, severance will be effective:

From the date on which communication is first received by a coparcenor

From the date on which communication is known to others

Either (a) or (b)

Neither (a) nor (b)

Explanation:

According to this doctrine, although communication regarding partition might be received by coparceners on different dates, their receipt will relate back to the date of notice i.e. severance will be effective from the date on which communication is put into transmission; but the vested rights that might accrue in the interval, between the date of transmission and date of receipt, are preserved. This was explained in Paghvamma v Chenchamma (AIR 1964 SC 136)
