What's the Lowdown on 'Constructive Possession'?

property clat_ug beginner definition_doubt

Yaaar, I'm struggling to wrap my head around this term from our TPA notes. Textbooks say it's when someone has control over property without physically holding it, but that's like explaining cricket by saying "someone hits the ball and runs". What I'm looking for is an example. Like, say Rohan builds a new extension on his dad's land using a contractor, but Dad isn't home to give or receive the actual keys. Is that constructive possession in action? Can anyone give a relatable example or a real-life case that makes this concept clear?

// Additional Info: "Aapko pata hai 'constructive possession' ka kya matlab hai? Aisa hai jab kisi ko property ki ownership nahi hai, lekin woh apne kamarde ko apne control mein rakhne ke liye kaam kar raha hai. Ya phir, jab koi kuch aur property ki jagah keep karne ka dawaat da raha hai, lekin voh property uske paas nahin hai.
