The Telangana high court has reversed an order cancelling a gift deed executed by a senior citizen in favour of his grandson, deeming it 'legally untenable'. The court restored the property to the grandson but expressed no opinion on the grandfather's right to cancellation or the grandson's claim. The case involves allegations of inadequate maintenance under the 2007 Act.
