Thinking of buying a plot in Karnataka? It’s situated on land gifted to the seller’s ancestors by the Venugopalaswamy Temple, but there’s a twist. The land records (RTC) initially showed the temple’s name, not the seller’s. The seller had to fight a legal battle in the Karnataka High Court to get his name recognized as the rightful owner. The court ultimately ruled in his favor, citing the Inam Abolition Act and confirming that the temple had no claim. The seller’s name is now reflected in the land records. Is this plot a safe buy, considering the legal history?

While the seller’s name is now on the land records, the legal history involving a religious institution and a court battle over ownership raises concerns. You should consult a lawyer to thoroughly examine the court order and ensure there are no outstanding legal challenges or claims against the property.
