Delhi Law House Sanjiva Rows : Commentary On Law Of Easements & Licences Alongwith Model Forms, With Latest Case Laws, 8Th New Edn. by Sanjiva Row
In pursuance of constant demand of our esteemed readers, we have decided to publish the revised edition of the existing work. While revising the original work, we have done our best to keep the original spirit of the book intact. An easement is a right which the owner or occupier of certain land possesses, as such for the beneficial enjoyment of that land to do and continue to do something or to prevent or continue to prevent something being alone, in or open, or in respect of certain other land not his own. An easement is a non-possessory right to use and/or enter into the real property of another without possessing it. Modern Courts recognize more varieties of easements, but the basic categories of easements still from the foundation of easement law.
