ABDUL MAJEED VS MST. KHALIDA BIBI (DECEASED). Ss. 42, 54 & 55---Punjab Land Revenue Act (XVII of 1967), 42---Suit for declaration with perpetual and mandatory injunction---Oral gift subsequently translated into mutation---Fraud---Exclusion of sisters/respondents from their right of inheritance---Essential ingredients of gift---Proof---Non-mentioning of necessary details as to offer and acceptance of gift in the written statement or evidence---Effect---Evidence beyond the scope of pleadings---Admissibility. Suit of respondents/plaintiffs was decreed, however, the appeal and revision filed by the petitioners/defendants were dismissed by the Appellate and Revisional Court, respectively. Validity---Basic ingredients of a valid gift are: offer, acceptance and delivery of possession. No descriptions of making of offer as to gifting out of the disputed property to the petitioners by the donor, acceptance thereof by them, venue and names of witnesses in whose presence such transaction took place, had been given, which were necessary to be pleaded and proved. Even the same had not been deposed during evidence either by the petitioners or their witnesses. A party cannot lead any evidence beyond its pleadings. No illegality was found in the impugned judgment rendered by the High Court as well as judgments and decrees passed by the trial and first Appellate Court warranting interference by Supreme Court. Thus, no case for grant of leave was made out. Leave was refused, in circumstances.
