The Ninth Edition of the Specific Relief is being released before our esteemed readers. The last edition was warmly welcomed and acclaimed by our readers. In this edition all latest case-laws have been inserted and some old or obsolete case-law have been deleted.Instead of quoting passage form the judgments of High Courts and Supreme Court, law laid down there has been given in simple and clear language in a concise form. The commentary is lucid and exhaustive. Precise synopsis with proper head-notes are given with page number, under each section to facilitate quick and easy reference to topic in particular. An exhaustive subject index at the end of the book has been appended for tracing desired point effortlessly. The book has been thouroughly revised and updated through judicial decisions. During the past six years, since last edition, the concept of specific relief has undergone many changes and we have taken into these developments while revising the book. It is trite to say that to err is human and perfection is Divine. The revising authors deem it necessary to make apology which may be found in this book.Suggestions to improve the book are welcome
