    Question

    Under Section 28 of the Indian Easements Act, 1882,

    easements cannot be acquired through:
    A Express grant or reservation Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Prescription or long user Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Necessity or apparent quasi-easement Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Mere enjoyment as of right without legal title Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Implied grant in partition Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Section 28 of the Indian Easements Act prohibits easement acquisition through mere possession/enjoyment without title to dominant heritage. Valid modes remain: express/implied grant, prescription (20 years), necessity (common ancestor), and apparent quasi-easements. This prevents easement claims based solely on user without property rights.
