                       Pronounced on : 22.12.2023

JUDGMENT :

1] The present proceedings have checkered history.

The plaintiffs filed a suit for partition and separate

possession of the suit properties in the year 1956. The suit

was concluded within a period of one year and the decree

was passed in the year 1957. The defendant nos. 7 and 8 in

the suit filed appeal against the said decree before the

Appellate Court. All the other parties to the suit accepted

the decree of the trial Court. The Appellate Court

proceedings concluded by its order on 02.05.1963 in First

Appeal Nos. 78/1958 and First Appeal No.79/1958 and

further amended order dated 24.09.1963.

2] However, the execution of the decree has been

an endless process. The execution of the decree is

obstructed by the subsequent purchasers of the suit property

by raising multiple objections before the Collector in

13576.19WP+

proceedings under Section 54 of the Civil Procedure Code

and before the Civil Court and in the High Court and also

the Hon'ble Supreme Court on various occasions and the

decree holder is yet to secure fruits of the decree. Finally,

the Hon'ble Supreme Court, by order dated 4th December,

2023, directed conclusion of the entire execution

proceedings within a period of two months and thus I have

taken up for disposal the present Writ Petitions pending in

this Court of all the objectors to the execution of the decree.

3] All 10 Writ Petitions pending, relates to the

objections filed before the Collector executing the decree

under Section 54 of the Civil Procedure Code and also

before the Appellate Authority i.e. the Commissioner. The

objectors are resisting the execution of the decree and have

challenged the final chart prepared by the Collector for

allocation of share of the respective parties to the suit

property in terms of decree under Section 54 of the Civil

Procedure Code.

4] In the instant case, all the objectors,

13576.19WP+

undisputedly have purchased the suit properties from the

judgment debtors after the finalization of the preliminary

decree by the appellate court. All the original defendants, in

the instant case, are present before the Collector in

execution proceedings and have accepted the partition chart

prepared by the Collector. However, the objectors, who have

subsequently purchased and further sold the properties after

the finalization of the preliminary decree, have raised

various objections to the execution of the decree.

5] Thus, the primary question to be considered in

the instant cases is whether such independent objections

beyond the transferor [judgment debtor] can be raised by

the subsequent transferees / purchasers of the suit property,

who has purchased the suit property, after the preliminary

decree in the suit is confirmed by the appellate court, when

the defendants / original judgment debtors are also present

in the execution proceeding and have accepted the partition

chart prepared by the Collector? The next question to

consider is whether the objectors / transferee can seek

13576.19WP+

equitable partition of the suit properties, such that the

entire land purchased by the objectors can be adjusted

towards the share of the judgment debtor?

In view of the long litigation, the facts in this

case are lengthy but are noted below for complete

appreciation of the issue at hand. The facts are taken from

the earlier judgments of this Court and are not in dispute.

Facts leading to filing the present Writ Petitions are as under :

6] One Maheboob Zarekari was the owner of

survey Nos.46/2, 47/6, 48/6, 53/1B, 133/3, 52/1, 52/2,

131, 50/4 situated at Chahurna (Bk), Taluka and District

Ahmednagar and the house property bearing No. 5106 City

Survey No.4097 Ward No. 12, Ahmednagar. Said Maheboob

Zarekari died on 19.05.1948 leaving behind him his widow

Mamulabee and a daughter Chotibee. The property was

then mutated on 13.07.1948 in the name of widow

Mamulabee. On 27.07.1949 Mamulabee executed gift deed

in respect of survey Nos. 47/6, 48/6 and 50/4 in favour of

13576.19WP+

one Babu Sagulal Itare @ Zarekari. On 13.04.1953,

Mamulabee executed registered sale deed in favour of one

Sakharam Mahadev Misal in respect of survey No. 52/2. On

12.11.1953, Mamulabee sold property survey No. 53/1B by

registered sale deed to one Ramchandra Gopinath Misal.

Again on 23.09.1953, Mamulabee executed another sale

deed in favour of Sakharam Misal in respect of survey No.

52/1.

7] On 13.04.1956 Chotibee filed Special Civil Suit

No.13/1956 for partition and separate possession in respect

of the properties owned by her father Maheboob Zarekari.

In the said civil suit Mamulabee was joined as defendant

No. 1 and the other persons to whom Mamulabee

transferred survey Nos. 46/2, 131, 47/6, 48/6, 52/1, 53/1B

and 133/3 were also joined as defendant Nos.2 to 9. Babu

Sagulal Itare @ Zarekari was joined as defendant No. 2 as

survey No. 47/6, 48/6 and 50/4 were transferred to him by

way of gift by Mamulabee. The defendant No. 3 Khandu

Ramu Phulsaunder and defendant No. 4 Laxman Ramu

13576.19WP+

Phulsaunder purchased survey No. 131 and some portion of

survey No. 46/2 and hence were joined as defendant Nos. 3

and 4 respectively. One Raghunath Pandit purchased survey

No. 46/6 from defendant No. 2 and was joined as defendant

No. 5 in the suit. Rev. Dr. Bhaskar Diwale purchased survey

No.48/6 from defendant No. 2 and hence was joined as

defendant No.6. Sakharam Misal purchased survey No.

52/1 and 52/2 from defendant No. 1 and, was therefore,

joined as defendant No. 7. Ramchandra Misal purchased

survey No.53/1B and Laxman Bhosale purchased survey No.

133/3 and, hence, were joined as defendant Nos. 8 and 9

respectively.

8] During the pendency of the said Special Civil

Suit plaintiff/Chotibee executed registered sale deed dated

25.05.1957 by which she sold her 3/4th share in the land

survey Nos. 47/6, 48/6, 53/1B. 133/3, 52/1 and 52/2 to

one Mahadu Narayan Pawar, who subsequently joined in

the said special civil suit as plaintiff No. 2. Thus the

Chotibee and Mahadu were the plaintiff Nos. 1 and 2,

13576.19WP+

whereas, Mamulabee was defendant No. 1 and the other

purchasers were defendant Nos. 2 to 9.

9] The Trial Court has framed 38 issues while

deciding the suit.

10] While deciding the quantum of share of the

plaintiff Chotibi and defendant No.1 Mamulabi, the Trial

Court has concluded that Chotibi would be entitled to 7/8 th

share in the suit properties and Mamulabi would be entitled

to 1/8th share. The Appellate Court (Division Bench of this

Court) has not altered these shares.

11] Defendant Nos. 3 and 4 in the suit are the

Phulsunder brothers. The Trial Court framed issue No.10 as

to whether these brothers prove that they have purchased

S.No.131 and some portion of S.No.46/2 from Mamulabi by

sale deed dated 08/07/1955 and also framed issue No.11 as

to whether this sale deed would be binding upon the

plaintiff Chotibi. The Trial Court concluded that no answer

is necessary for these 2 issues since the plaintiff submitted a

13576.19WP+

purshis Exh.62 and the names of these two brothers is to be

deleted from the suit. Consequentially, the issue whether

these two brothers are in possession of the remaining

portion in S.No. 46/2 as tenants, was also rendered

unnecessary.

12] Issue No.17 relates to whether Chotibi proves

that land S.No. 48/6 belonged to Mahibubbhai, it concluded

in the affirmative. On issue No. 18 as to whether defendant

No.6 Dr. Bhaskar proves that he has purchased S.No.48/6

from defendant No.2 deceased Babu Itare, the Trial Court

has answered in the affirmative, but further concluded

while answering Issue No. 19 that the said sale transaction

would not bind the plaintiff. While dealing with issue No.20

as to whether defendant No.6 Bhaskar has bonafide

purchased the land without notice, the Trial Court answered

in the negative.

13] Issue Nos. 21 to 24 are with regard to

defendant No.7 Sakharam Misal having purchased

S.No.52/1 and 52/2 from Mamulabi by the two sale deeds

13576.19WP+

dated 30/04/1952 and 23/09/1953. The Trial Court has

answered in the affirmative and concluded that Sakharam

has not proved that Chotibi had consented to the sale deeds

and hence the said sale deeds would not be binding upon

Chotibi.

14] With regard to the purchase of S.No.53/18 by

defendant No.8 Ramchandra Misal from Mamulabi is

concerned, the Trial Court framed issue Nos. 26 to 29 and

concluded that though defendant No.8 had purchased the

said land, the sale transaction between the two was not

binding upon Chotibi and that defendant No.8 is not a

bonafide transferee.

15] With regard to whether defendant No.8 was a

protected tenant or is entitled to protection under the

Bombay Tenancy and Agricultural Lands Act, the Trial Court

framed issue Nos.31 and 32 and concluded that an answer

to the said issues is not necessary since the question as to

whether defendant No.8 was a protected tenant of the land

purchased by him, was not necessary to be decided.

13576.19WP+

16] With regard to the role of defendant No.9

Laxman Sitaram Bhosale was concerned, the Trial Court

framed issue Nos. 33 to 35 and concluded that defendant

No.9 proves that he purchased land S.No.133/3 from

Mamulabi. The said purchase was not bonafide and the sale

transaction was not binding upon the plaintiff.

17] Finally, the Trial Court passed the following

order in its judgment and decree dated 30/09/1957 as

under :-

"1. It is hereby declared that the plaintiff No. 1 has 7/8 share in the suit house and the suit land Survey No.50/4, the plaintiff No.2 has 7/8 share in the suit lands survey Nos. 47/6, 48/6, 53/1B, 133/3, 52/1 and 52/2, defendant No. 1 lhas 1/8 share in the suit house and the suit lands survey Nos. 46/2, 47/6, 131 and 50/4, Defendant No.6 has 1/8 share in the suit land survey No.48/6, Defendant No.7 has 1/8 share in the suit lands survey No.52/1 and 52/2, Defendant No.8 has 1/8 share in the suit land survey No.53/1B, and Defendant No.9 has 1/8 share in the suit land No. 133/3.

2. It is hereby directed under 0.20, R.18 CPC., that on the interested parties paying the necessary court fee stamps the suit lands mentioned in para 1 of this order be partitioned and the plaintiff Nos. 1 and 2 and Defendant Nos. 1 and 6 to 9 be put into separate possession of their respective shares therein as declared above, by the Collector or any gazetted Subordinate of the Collector

13576.19WP+

deputed by him in this behalf.

3. It is hereby further directed that on the interested parties paying the necessary court fee stamps the suit house be partitioned and the parties whose shares therein are declared above, be put into separate possession of their respective shares therein by a Commissioner to be hereafter appointed by the Court in execution proceedings.

4. The plaintiffs and defendants Nos.6 to 9 to bear their respective costs of the suit. The names of defendants Nos.3 and 4 be deleted from the suit. The defendant Nos.3 and 4 to bear their own cots."

18] The above judgment and decree was carried in

a First Appeal Nos.78/1958 and 79/1958. Sakharam

Mahadev Misal, original defendant No.7 was the appellant

in Appeal No.78/1958 wherein original plaintiffs Chotibi

and Mahadu Pawar and original defendant No.1 Mamulabi

and No.2 Babu Itare, were the respondents. In First Appeal

No.79/1958, original defendant No.8 Ramchandra Misal

was the appellant and Chotibi and Mahadu Narayan Pawar,

original plaintiffs, were the respondents. The rest of the

litigants have accepted the decree of the Trial Court.

19] The learned Division Bench / Appellate Court

13576.19WP+

delivered its judgment on 02-05-1963 which was further

rectified on 24-09-1963.

The Appellate Court in the order dated

02.05.1963 specifically observed as under :-

"We accordingly direct that the decree declaring the respective shares of the several parties be and is hereby confirmed, that the properties S.No.47/6, 53/1-B, 52/1, 52/2 and 50/4 and the house properties be equitably partitioned so that, as far as possible, defendant No.1 is assigned the whole survey numbers which have been purchased by defendant Nos. 7 and 8. In the event of such a partition not being possible, the Court will assign as much land out of these two survey numbers to defendant No.1 as is possible in consideration of her share in the house and other lands. As to the rest of the share the plaintiff will be entitled to reasonable compensation from defendants 7 and 8.

In order to do effective justice between the parties in this proceeding without driving them to further litigation in Tenancy Court, we direct the Lower Court to refer to the Mamlatdar, during the time that the partition proceedings are pending, the two following issues to be determined by him. The issues will be :

13576.19WP+

[1] Whether defendant No.7 proves that he was a tenant of Mahibubbhai and/or a tenant of the suit land S.No.52/1 and 52/2 and whether the tenancy is binding on the first plaintiff ?

[2] Whether defendant No.8 is a tenant of the suit land bearing S.No.53/1-B and whether the tenancy is binding on the first plaintiff ?

This inquiry will go on simultaneously with the enquiry regarding partition. The decision on these issues will not have any practical importance if equitable partition can be effected by the Lower Court. There will be no order as to costs."

20] However, by order dated 24/09/1963, the

above order suffered a correction and the Appellate Court

concluded as under :

"In the result we direct the following decree in modification of the one made by the learned trial Judge.

The 1" plaintiff will have 7/8 share in all the lands now in appeal and the house. There will be equitable partition as directed by us in our judgment and a further direction that if defendants 7 and 8 are

13576.19WP+

held by the Mamlatdar in answer to the two issues which are to be referred to the Mamlatdar to be tenants of the land and to be entitled to remain on the land she will be entitled to fair rent of the land which falls to her share and which will continue in possession of defendants 7 and 8. They will also be liable to payment of this amount of rent in the event of the finding of the Mamlatdar being as above upto the date of decree as well. If it is held by the Mamlatdar that they are not tenants of the land, the 1st plaintiff will get possession of such land as falls to her share on partition as directed by us above and will also get mesne profits from defendants 7 and 8 as claimed by her until delivery of possession. Partition proceedings to go on simultaneously with the enquiry by the Mamlatdar on the issues referred to him."

21] Based on the above directions, the Civil Court

modified the decree by passing an order on 23/12/1963 as

per the directions of the Appellate Court. Since issue of

tenancy is held against defendant nos. 7 and 8 as having

been concluded in the year 1952, the relevant portion of the

modified decree of the trial Court dated 23.12.1963, is as

under :

13576.19WP+

"......If it is held by the Mamlatdar that they are not tenants or the land, the 1 st plff will get possession of such land as falls to her share on partition as already directed, and will also get mesne profits from defts Nos.7 and 8 as claimed by her until delivery of possession."

22] Thereafter, execution proceedings were filed.

The plaintiffs filed Special Darkhast No.06/1965 for

execution of the modified decree, however, there is dispute

about the papers of Special Darkhast No.06 of 1965 being

lost. Thereafter, on 13.04.1977, the Special Darkhast

No.57/1977 was filed by the legal representatives of

plaintiff no.1 along with the plaintiff no.2 Mahadu Narayan

Pawar. During the pendency of the Special Darkhast

No.57/1977, the plaintiff no.2 Mahadu Narayan Pawar

assigned his rights under the deree in favour of one Hussan

Babu Zarekari in respect of his share in lands survey

No.47/6, 48/6, 53/1B, 133/3, 52/1 and 52/2 by executing

a deed of assignment dated 01.10.1981. On 22.10.1981, the

defendant nos.3 and 4, who were deleted from the suit by

an order of the trial Court, filed an application Exh.14

13576.19WP+

praying for deletion of Survey No.131 and 46/2 of

Chahurna (Bk.) from Special Darkhast No.57/1977.

23] On 23rd October, 1981, the defendant nos. 7 and

8 filed application Exh.17 in Special Darkhast No. 57/1977

for deletion of lands survey No.52/1 and 52/2 alleging that

as per the modification of the decree done by this Court in

First Appeal Nos.78/1958 and 79/1958, the whole survey

Nos.52/1 and 52/2 were to be assigned to the share of

defendant no. 1 by way of equitable partition. Similarly, a

pursis (Exh.21) was also filed by Hassan Babu Zarekari on

16.11.1981, for substituting his name, in place of plaintiff

No.2 / decree holder no.2 Mahadu Narayan Pawar, on the

basis of deed of assignment dated 01.10.1981.

24] The executing Court passed an order on

21.12.1981 below Exh. 14 deleting survey Nos.46/2 and

131 from Special Darkhast No.57/1977 and also passed

another order on 21.12.1981 below Exh. 17 directing the

Collector to allot survey No.52/1 and 52/2 to the share of

defendant no.1 in the proposed partition, did not pass any

13576.19WP+

orders on the applications Exh.21 and 22 filed for

substituting the name of Hassan Babu Zarekari in place of

decree holder No.2 Mahadu Narayan Pawar or deleting the

name of decree holder No.2 from Special Darkhast

No.57/1977.

Mahadu Narayan Pawar filed Writ Petition No.1597 of 2002

before this Court on 15.02.2022, claiming direction to the

respondent no.2, the Collector Ahmednagar, to effect

partition and actually separation of shares as provided

under Section 54 of Civil Procedure Code in the matter of

Special Darkhast No.57/1977 referred by the learned Civil

Judge Senior Division, Ahmednagar and to report

accordingly to the executing Court within specified time.

This Court by its judgment and order dated 12.07.2004

directed the Civil Judge Senior Division, Ahmednagar to

transmit the Special Darkhast immediately to the Collector,

Ahmednagar for execution in accordance with law. The

Collector was personally directed to execute the decree,

13576.19WP+

instead of transmitting it to subordinate officers and to

complete the proceeding within a period of one year and to

report the compliance to this Court. On 13.11.2004, the

Collector called report from the Tahsildar in respect of the

issues of tenancy framed by this Court in First Appeal

Nos.78/1958 and 79/1958. On 13.04.2005, the Tahsildar

submitted his report, in substance holding that the

defendant nos. 7 and 8 have surrendered their tenancy

rights in the year 1952 in respect of survey nos. 52/1, 52/2

and 53/1B and since then their tenancy has come to an end.

26] The appellants / objectors, thereafter, moved an

application dated 07.12.2005 before the Collector raising

several objections to the executability of the decree and

sending the matter back to the Civil Court for correction of

decree. It was alleged that the decree was not amended in

the light of orders passed below Exh.14 and 17 dated

21.12.1981 and Exh.21 on 09.03.1998, by the executing

Court.

27] The Collector passed an order on 25.08.2006,

13576.19WP+

effecting partition of the suit properties and directing

delivery of possession to the concerned parties in

accordance with law. The statements were prepared by

Taluka Superintendent of Land Records, Ahmednagar. By

this partition 7/8th share in all the nine properties and

house property was assigned to plaintiff Nos.1 and 2,

whereas, 1/8th share in all such properties was assigned to

defendant no.1 and other defendants, as per the decree

passed by the trial Court. The said order was challenged

before the Additional Commissioner, Nashik and by order

dated 31.05.2007, the Additional Commissioner remanded

the matter back to the Collector for afresh enquiry.

28] The legal heirs of plaintiff no.2 / decree holder

no. 2 Mahadu Narayan Pawar filed Writ Petition No.3636 of

2007 before this Court in which several appellants /

objectors were arrayed as party respondents. The Collector

passed an order on 24.12.2007 rejecting the objections

raised by the appellants and another order was passed by

the Civil Court on 07.01.2008 rejecting the objections raised

13576.19WP+

before it by the objectors to the executability of the decree

in Special Darkhast No.57 of 1977. The various Writ

Petitions were filed by the objectors before this Court. The

Writ Petition was dismissed by the Single Judge against

which Letters Patent Appeal was filed. All objections raised

now before this Court were canvassed in the Letters Patent

Appeal.

29] The Division Bench of this Court [Coram :

P.V.Hardas & R.K.Deshpande, JJ.] by order dated 22 nd July,

2009 in Letters Patent Appeal No.114/2008 in Writ Petition

No.276 of 2008 allowed the LPA and held as under :

83. In the light of above adjudication by us, we sum-up our conclusions and pass an order as under:

5) It is held that the properties survey Nos. 131 and 46/2 of village Chahurna (Bk), Tq. & Dist.

Ahmednagar stands deleted from preliminary decree forwarded to the Collector by the learned Civil Judge Senior Division, Ahmednagar and the same stands deleted consequently from Special Darkhast No. 57/1977.

6) The survey Nos. 52/1, 52/2 and 53/1B stands allotted to the share of original defendant No. 1 Mamulabee in the proposed partition and the

13576.19WP+

Collector, Ahmednagar is directed to effect the partition of the remaining lands.

7) The executing Court and the Collector, shall however, consider the question of allotment of share of defendant No. 1 Mamulabee in house property and in lands other than Survey Nos. 131, 46/2, 52/1, 52/2 and 53/1B to the share of plaintiffs or the payment of monetary compensation, in consideration of lands Survey Nos. 52/1, 52/2 and 53/1B, by the defendant Nos. 7 and 8 to the plaintiffs.

12) We make it clear that although, parties have raised various contentions, we have dealt with and adjudicated the same only to the extent of survey Nos. 131, 46/2, 52/1, 52/2 and 53/1B, leaving all other objections to the executability of decree open to be decided by the Civil Court and the Collector.

30] Thereafter, the order dated 22.07.2009 passed

in Letters Patent Appeal was challenged before the Hon'ble

Supreme Court. The Hon'ble Supreme Court passed an

order setting aside the order passed by the Single Judge so

also the order in the Letters Patent Appeal. By order dated

2nd August, 2017, the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Civil

Appeal No.3586 of 2010 with Civil Appeal No. 6345 of

2011 passed the following order :

13576.19WP+

" After hearing learned counsel for the parties, it appears that it would be just and proper to set aside the order of the Division Bench as well as passed by Single Bench. The Letters Patent Appeal could not be said to be maintainable and it is not necessary to go into the details. We feel that effect of the preliminary decree which has attained finality should be considered and also the effect of order passed by the Mamlatdar to whom land has to be allotted as per preliminary decree as there was surrender of tenancy in the year 1952 as found by Mamlatdar.

In the facts and circumstances and in order to do complete justice between the parties, we deem it proper to remit the matter to the Single Judge to hear the parties afresh and decide the writ petition afresh. All the questions which can be raised in accordance with law by the parties are kept open.

We request the Single Bench of the High Court to make an effort to decide the writ petition as early as possible preferably within a period of six months.

Parties to maintain status quo with respect to alienation and possession till the disposal of the writ petition. It is open to any of the parties to move the High Court.

Order passed by the Division Bench and by Single Bench are hereby set aside. The appeals are accordingly allowed. No order as to costs.

31] The Hon'ble Supreme Court remanded the

13576.19WP+

matter back to the High Court for fresh adjudication after

considering the legal findings recorded by the Supreme

Court. This Court [Coram : Ravindra V. Ghuge, J.], after

remand, by order dated 27th March, 2018 in Writ Petition

No.276 of 2008 at para nos.38 and 40 has held as under :

38. I, therefore, find that the impugned order does not call for any interference considering the following aspects :-

[e] The Collector would consider the contentions of the decree holder and the judgment debtors before carrying out equitable partition.

40. All pending civil applications by the intervenors need not be entertained as they are purchasers during the pendency of the proceedings and are, therefore, disposed of.

32] The order of learned Single Judge is not

challenged and had attained finality. However, in an parallel

proceedings is a Writ Petition before the Division Bench

filed by one of the objectors, the above noted para 38(e) of

the judgment of Single Judge dated 27.03.2028 was set

13576.19WP+

aside by order dated 24th September, 2019 [Coram :

Prasanna B. Varale & Avinash G. Gharote, JJ.] in Writ

Petition No.11754 of 2019.

33] The said order dated 24.09.2019 passed by the

Division Bench of this Court was challenged before the

Hon'ble Supreme Court.

34] By order dated 4th December, 2023, the Hon'ble

Supreme Court in Petitions for Special Leave to Appeal (C)

No. (s). 25285-25286/2019 disposed of the SLP by setting

aside para 14 of the above order dated 24.09.2019 with

further direction to conclude the execution proceedings

within two months.

35] As such, in view of the directions of the Hon'ble

Supreme Court, all Writ Petitions pertaining to the objectors

to the execution of the decree are taken up for hearing

together.

36] For ready reference, the partition chart

prepared by the Collector under Section 54 of the Civil

13576.19WP+

Procedure Code for distribution of the suit property in terms

of the decree is reproduced as under :

Sr. Subject to the Share of plaintiffs in decretal share of Defendants in the No. decretal properties properties(the plaintiff nos. 02 decretal properties) and 03 has 1/2 share for each as per the order dated 21.02.2019 ) Survey Area Survey Area (Hector Plff.

SUBMISSIONS OF THE PETITIONERS :

37] Mr.A.P.Bhandari, learned counsel appearing for

the petitioners in Writ Petition Nos.13700/2019,

13693/2019, 13704/2019, 13928/2019 & 3760/2019 has

contended as under :

13576.19WP+

A] Though there are three orders i.e. order passed

in Writ Petition No.1597/2002, order passed in Civil

Application No.7705/2005 and Order in Writ Petition

No.3636/2007 and Order in Writ Petition No.276/2008

specifically direct all objections of the parties to be

considered, yet the Collector did not consider any of the

objections.

B] The issue of tenancy is not framed by the Court

and referred to Mamlatdar, as mandated in the decree

passed by the appellate court, that has attained finality.

Order passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Civil Appeals

does not hold that, there is no question of tenancy. It merely

states that, the effect of surrender of tenancy is required to

be considered. In this context it is necessary to refer to

observations of the appellate court in the order dated

24.09.1963.

C] Land bearing Survey No.46/2 and 131 are

deleted from the suit in view of purshis at Exh.62. The

defendant No.3 and 4 are also deleted from the suit. The

13576.19WP+

directions in pursuance to the order below Exh.14 are also

required to be considered. Furthermore, the operative part

of order does not refer to grant of share to Chhotibee in said

properties.

D] Land bearing Survey Nos.52/1 and 52/2 were

transferred under Sale Deed. Though the trial court

specifically directed delivery of possession to the plaintiff

No.2, the appellate court modified said decree and directed

the framing of issue of tenancy, effecting equitable partition

and further directions to determine compensation and

adjustment of equities. The appellate court holds that, the

first plaintiff is entitled to fair rent/compensation/

possession. Said modification in decree is in presence of

Plaintiff no. 2.

Lands Survey No. 52/1 and 52/2 are

transferred by legal heirs of Plaintiff no. 1 in favour of Mr.

Sakhram Misal by the Registered Sale Deed dated

17.05.1980. The directions on the application below Exh.17

are not considered. Though the prayer for not hearing

13576.19WP+

objections of the petitioners was made in modification

application in Writ Petition No.276/2008, said prayer is

rejected. Yet the petitioners are not even summoned by the

Collector. Representative of petitioners was not accorded

audience by the Collector and even the impugned order

shows that, there is no opportunity of hearing granted.

E] Similar is the situation regarding Survey

No.53/1/B. Though the decree is passed by this Hon'ble

Court, which has attained finality grants share in respect of

land Survey No.53/1/B, land bearing Survey No.53/1/A of

the petitioners, which was not even subject matter of suit or

execution proceedings is made subject matter of the

petition. As such, the Collector ventured to correct the

decree of Civil Court which has attained finality.

F] The respondents want that, the order below

Exh. 14 and 17, which have attained finality shall not be

considered by the Court. However, they still want that, the

plaintiff No.2 and 3 who are not granted share in respect of

5 lands with which the petitioners are concerned, shall be

13576.19WP+

entitled to prosecute the execution.

G] The order passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court

keeps all the issues open and it must be noted that, the

parties to the execution proceedings were not parties before

the Hon'ble Supreme Court at the time of hearing of appeals

of the respondents.

H] The order passed in Writ Petition No.3636/2007

and directions issued therein have attained finality.

However, said directions are not considered by the

Collector.

I] There are house properties involved in the

decree and the appellate court has directed grant of share in

respect of house properties. However, absolutely nothing is

stated regarding the same. In absence of same, these cannot

be execution.

38] The learned counsel have also filed additional

submission and are taken on record and the same is not

reproduced here as they are repetitive and would only

13576.19WP+

increase the bulk of this judgment so also the submission

are not relevant in view of the findings rendered by me on

the preliminary legal issues.

39] Mr.S.S.Thombre, learned counsel appearing for

the petitioner in Writ Petition No.14790/2019 has adopted

the argument of the learned counsel Mr.A.P.Bhandari and

submits that the issue of tenancy is yet to be decided and it

has not attained finality and the matter ought to have been

returned for decision of tenancy issue.

40] Mr.A.K.Gawali, learned counsel appearing for

the petitioners in Writ Petition Nos.14786/2019 and Writ

Petition No.14787/2019 submits that Survey Nos.46/2 and

131 were sold by the Chandan Estate to petitioner Imratbai

and seeks deletion of the property at Survey Nos.46/2 and

131 and the said properties were not part of the suit

properties. Since the defendant nos. 3 and 4 were deleted

and that there could have been no decree passed for the

properties at Survey Nos.46/2 and 131.

13576.19WP+

41] Similarly, Writ Petition No.13693 of 2019 and

Writ Petition No.3760 of 2021 wherein the properties at

Survey nos.52/1, 52/2 and 53/1B were sold by the

Chandan Estate to the petitioners. The properties in Writ

Petition No.13576 of 2019 from Survey No.52/2 are sold by

Vithal Sakharam Misal, the legal heir of defendant no. 7

Sakharam Misal, to the Mangla Sharad Mutha i.e. the

petitioner and she seeks deletion of the said property from

the partition chart.

42] Mr.Mukul S. Kulkarni, learned counsel

appearing for the petitioner in Writ Petition No.13576 of

2019 submits that the order of the Appellate Court seeks to

balance equities and that the entire 7/8 th share is granted to

the plaintiff subject to the amendment being carried out in

the plaint. From the record he is not able to ascertain

whether any such amendment is carried out in the plaint.

43] Mr.Vijay B. Munot, learned counsel for the

petitioner in Writ Petition No.13927 of 2019 contends that

he has purchased the suit property from the defendant no.1

13576.19WP+

and plaintiff no.1 as per the shares available to the

defendant no.1 and the share assigned to plaintiff no.1 after

the decree. As such, property bearing Survey No.50/4

purchased by the petitioner should be deleted from the

partition chart.

SUBMISSIONS OF RESPONDENTS :

Submissions of the respondents are made by

SENIOR ADVOCATE Mr.R.N.DHORDE, learned counsel for

respondent No.6, ADVOCATE Mr.ASHWIN SHETE, learned

counsel for the respondent Nos.5B, 5D, 5F and 5H and

Mr.NITEEN V.GAWARE, learned counsel for respondent

Nos.5C.

44] Per contra, the learned Senior Counsel

Mr.R.N.Dhorde, appearing for the respondents submits that

the preliminary decree of 1957 has become final and

therefore the alleged interpretation put by the present

petitioners is devoid of any substances. In view of the

judgment and the Apex Court setting aside the order in

Letters Patent Appeal and the same operates as res judicata.

13576.19WP+

45] The learned counsel submits that in view of the

judgment of learned Single Judge of this Court

dtd.27.03.2018 in Writ Petition No.276 of 2008 and the

Hon'ble Supreme court dtd.4th Dec.2023 in Civil Appeal

No.3586 of 2010, the subsequent purchasers cannot be

heard in the matter as the parties to suit have already

accepted the partition.

46] As regards the contentions regarding Survey

Nos.53/1B which is now read as Survey Nos. 53/1B, the

learned counsel submits that nobody has disputed the area

of land of 3 Acres as in plaint and decree which is available

for partition in Survey No. 53/1B of village Chahurana

(Bk.). The same is confirmed by the High Court and by the

Supreme Court, therefore, 3 Acres of area of Survey No.

53/1B is confirmed.

47] The learned Senior Counsel further submits that

the Collector has considered all the lands rightly in the

partition and they will go to the respective parties,

therefore, no interference is called for. The issue of tenancy

has become final. The 1957 decree is not yet executed for

13576.19WP+

60 years because the petitioners are Builders / Property

dealers. The present petitioners are claiming through

original defendants and the original defendants have

accepted the decree, that to the extent of 7/8 share in all

lands to plaintiffs and the Collector has rightly allotted the

properties to the respective parties. In view of the above

mentioned contentions, it is not necessary either to add or

to delete any property and delay the execution. The present

petitioners are builders / property dealers, who are waiting

for parties to vanish and harass so that the original decree

holder would give up their claim and therefore litigation is

created and prolonged.

CONSIDERATION :

48] Considering the submissions of the parties, first

issue that arises for determination is whether the petitioners

/ objectors have an independent right to raise objections to

the execution of the decree when the defendants [judgment

debtor] from whom the petitioners have purchased the suit

properties after the decree had attained finality, has not

13576.19WP+

objected to the partition chart ? Undisputedly, all the

objectors have purchased the suit property from the

judgment-debtor after the decree had attained finality after

the judgment of the appellate Court. The Hon'ble Supreme

Court by order dated 2nd August, 2017 in Civil Appeal

No.3586 of 2010, while dealing with the objections raised

by the objectors in the earlier round of litigation has set

aside the order passed by the Division Bench in the LPA,

whereby this Court had upheld the objections of the

objectors. The Hon'ble Supreme Court has set aside the

order of the Division Bench and Single Judge and held that

the effect of preliminary decree having attained finality has

to be taken into consideration and also the tenancy issue is

closed in the year 1952 and remanded the matter back to

the Single Judge for fresh adjudication taking into

consideration above facts.

49] On remand, the learned Single Judge concluded

the issue of the rights of the objectors to contest the

execution proceedings, by order dated 27th March, 2018 in

13576.19WP+

Writ Petition No.276 of 2008 at para nos.38 and 40 as

under :

38. I, therefore, find that the impugned order does not call for any interference considering the following aspects :-

[a] The Appellate Court has modified the decree by its judgment and the correction order dated 24/09/1963. This decree has, therefore, attained finality.

[b] By the report submitted by the Tahsildar, the tenancy has been surrendered in 1952.

[c] By the directions of the learned Division Bench of this Court in WP No. 1597/2002, the District Collector is to consider the objections of all the sides while resorting to equitable partition.

[d] This Court, vide its order dated 05/09/2007 in WP No. 3636/2007, has permitted the litigating sides to put forth their contentions before the Collector who would consider them while carrying out equitable partition.

[e] The Collector would consider the contentions of the decree holder and the judgment debtors before carrying out equitable partition.

[f] All the properties which are within the ambit of the decree as per the judgment of the

13576.19WP+

First Appellate Court, would be subjected to equitable partition strictly as per the decree which has rendered the shares of the plaintiff and the defendant, final.

[g] The Collector would abide by the directions of the Appellate Court reproduced in paragraph No.19 of this judgment.

40. All pending civil applications by the intervenors need not be entertained as they are purchasers during the pendency of the proceedings and are, therefore, disposed of.

50] The learned Single Judge has held that it is only

the plaintiff and the defendants to the suit will be heard in

the matter before the Collector in execution proceedings

under Section 54 of Civil Procedure Code and none else.

However, the Division Bench of this Court in Writ Petition

No.11754 of 2019, while considering a parallel challenge to

the order of the Collector and also the Commissioner, by

order dated 24th September, 2019, the Division Bench of this

Court [Coram : Prasanna B. Varale & Avinash G. Gharote,

JJ.] in Writ Petition No.11754 of 2019 at para no.14

observed as under :

14. In the order passed by single Judge and more

13576.19WP+

particularly in Para-38, clause (e), in Writ Petition No.276 of 2008 on 27th March, 2018, the learned single Judge though observed that the Collector would consider the contentions of the decree holder and the judgment debtors before carrying out equitable partition, it cannot be stretched to submit that the petitioners who are either transferee or assignees of the properties have no right at all of hearing in the appeals presented by themselves before the Commissioner raising grievance against the order passed by the Collector which was for the distribution of property on the backdrop of the decree as well as the order passed by the learned single Judge on 27th March, 2018, in Writ Petition No. 276 of 2008.

51] The order passed by the Division Bench dated

24th September, 2019 in Writ Petition No.11754 of 2019 was

challenged before the Supreme Court and the Supreme

Court while issuing notice formulated the issue involved in

the petition in its order dated 6th January, 2020 in Petition

(s) for Special Leave to Appeal (C) No (s). 27590-

27591/2019 as under :

Applications for exemption from filing official translation, exemption from filing certified copy of the impugned judgment and permission to

13576.19WP+

file synopsis and list of dates are allowed.

Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that the only grievance is that while issuing directions in the impugned order some observations have been made which would tantamount to giving the assignee a right beyond that is available from the assignor. For example, if the assignor has compromised the matter, the assignee cannot enlarge the scope of what has already happened.

Issue notice limited to the aforesaid aspect returnable in three weeks.

A copy of this order to accompany the notice.

Tag with SLP (Civil) Nos.25285-25286 of 2019.

52] While disposing the matter finally, by order

dated 4th December, 2023, the Hon'ble Supreme Court in

Petitions for Special Leave to Appeal (C) No (s). 25285-

25286/2019 has answered the issue as under :

Delay condoned.

Notice was issued on 23.10.2019 limited to the issue that observations in the impugned order that a Assignee has a right beyond what is available to the assignor would amount to enlarging the scope of what already stands concluded.

The contesting respondents, there is no doubt, purchased pending litigation.

The aforesaid being the position, the

13576.19WP+

directions in para 14 are not something which can be sustained as the ambit of the dispute cannot go beyond what can be looked into, i.e. the rights of the assignor. Assignee cannot have rights better than the Assignor.

The Special leave petitions stand disposed of in the aforesaid terms. The competent Court to proceed in accordance with law expeditiously and conclude execution proceedings not later than two months from today.

Pending applications stand disposed of.

53] Thus, the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that

if the transferor - assignor has compromised the matter, the

assignee does not have higher right than the assignor. In the

instant case, all the decree holders and judgment debtors -

defendants are before the Civil Court and they have

accepted the partition chart prepared by the Collector in

terms of the modified decree in execution of the decree. The

Hon'ble Supreme Court in the above order dated

04.12.2023 held that the transferee does not have higher

right than the transferor and the transferee cannot be heard

independently beyond the judgment debtors / transferors.

The Hon'ble Supreme Court has observed that all the

objectors who have purchased the suit property after the

13576.19WP+

preliminary decree had attained finality. The transferees

have purchased pending litigation and thus have no right to

raise their grievances independent of the transferor.

Thus all the Writ Petitions of the present

objectors are liable to be dismissed.

54] The principle of law emanating from above

discussion is that transferee pendente lite is bound by the

preliminary decree which has attained finality, even if the

decree is a compromise decree, so also, the transferee

pendente lite is bound by the final outcome of the execution

proceedings or final decree proceedings between the parties

to the partition suit unless it is vitiated by fraud.

55] The same view finds support in the below

mentioned judgments of the High Court of Allahabad and

Rajasthan. The High Court in the case of Amarnath and

others Vs. Deputy Director of Consolidation, Kanpur and

another reported in AIR 1985 Allahabad 163 at para 10 has

held as under :

13576.19WP+

10. ..... In AIR 1928 All 3 Shyam Lal V. Sohan Lal, a Division Bench of this Court has very succinctly indicated that a transferee pendente lite is bound by the decree just asmuch as he were a party to the suit. Such transferee puts himself in privity with the suit, and must be treated, not as a stranger to the suit, but as a party to it and consequently bound by the terms of the decree in full. A decree based upon a compromise is just asmuch binding as a decree founded upon a decision on merits.....

56] The High Court in the case of Mohammad

Aleem V. Maqsood Alam and others reported in AIR 1989

Raj.43 at para no. 5 has held as under :

5. ......The law is well settled that the doctrine of lis pendens is also applicable in cases where the pending litigation is ultimately compromised by the parties and a compromise decree is passed in terms of the compromise. In this connection reference may be made to the decision of the Full Bench of the Madras High Court in Ananomolia Chettiar v.

Malayandi Appaya Naik, (1906) ILR 29 Mad 426 wherein it has been laid down that the doctrine of lis pendens as embodied in S. 52 of the T.P. Act, applies to transfers effected during the pendency of a contentious suit or proceeding even when such suit or proceeding is subsequently compromised and a decree passed in pursuance of such compromise provided such compromise is not tainted by fraud or collusion. Similarly in Hiranya Bhusan Mukherjee v. Gouri Dutt Maharaj, AIR 1943 Cal 227 it has been held that the consequence of the doctrine of lis pendens is that the transaction pendente lite shall

13576.19WP+

not be allowed to affect the right under the decree and that as S. 52 of the T.P. Act stands it is immaterial how the decree is obtained in the suit, whether after contest or by consent, and that it is also immaterial whether the decree in the suit is right or wrong and that it is beyond the competence of the Court invited to apply the doctrine of lis pendens to sit in judgment on the previous decree.

From the above referred judgments in the case

of Amarnath and others [supra] and Mohammad Aleem

[supra] of the High Court of Rajasthan and Allahabad, the

principle of law that can be inferred is that the transferee

pendente lite, would be bound by the final outcome of the

suit even if the suit is compromised by the paraties unless

the compromise is vitiated by fraud.

57] Also seen from the context of proviso to Order

21 Rule 100 (proviso is an Maharashtra Amendment) which

reads as under :

"Where it is determined that the application is made by person to whom the judgment-debtor has transferred the property after the institution of the suit in which the decree was passed, the Court shall dismiss the application under sub-rule (a) above."

13576.19WP+

The proviso to Order 21 Rule 100 of Civil

Procedure Code is akin to Order 21 Rule 102 [which is

deleted by Maharashtra Amendment].

Admittedly, the transferees are not claiming

independent right over the suit property and has purchased

the suit property after the decree had attained finality. As

such, in terms of the proviso to Order 21 Rule 100, the

application is not sustainable.

58] This High Court in the case of Manik Vs. Suhas

Vasantrao Jawadekar & ors. reported in

MANU/MH/4613/2023 at para 53 has held as under :

53. The ratio laid down in the case of Babulal Vs. Raj Kumar And Others MANU/SC/0507/1996 :

(1996) 3 Supreme Court cases 154, and others cited supra relied upon by the respondent No. 10 needs no discussion as the law is clear that when the obstructionist claim right through the judgment debtor summary enquiry is to be made under Rule 98 of Order 21. Admittedly, respondent No. 10 was not the party to the suit. She acquired the title from the transferee pendente lite. She failed to prove her

13576.19WP+

independent title. However, her claim that she did not know about the pendency of the suit and that she is a bona fide purchaser without notice is also not accepted. She did not prove her independent right. Therefore, her resistance to the possession warrant was occasioned without any just cause, and her transaction was made during the pendency of the suit. She entered in the shoe of the judgment debtor. Hence, she had no right to resist the possession warrant.

59] In the instant case, the objectors have

purchased the suit property after the decree had attained

finality and are claiming their right through the judgment

debtor as such they have no independent right beyond the

judgment debtor to resist the decree. However, the

transferee would have independent right against the share

of the transferor which the transferee can agitate in an

independent proceedings, but, in the instant execution

proceedings the transferee cannot be heard independent of

the transferor.

60] I have already held above that the distribution

chart prepared by the Collector and accepted by the

13576.19WP+

transferor, cannot be questioned by the transferee pendente

lite. However, for the sake of argument if it is accepted that

the transferee can object to the chart of distribution of

property prepared by the Collector, the next question for

determination would be whether the transferee in the

instant case can seek equitable distribution of the suit

properties, such that the entire share of the transferor can

be adjusted towards the land purchased by the transferee by

accommodating the decree holder in remaining part of suit

property and if it is not possible to adjust the share of the

decree holder in the remaining property whether monetary

compensation can be granted to the decree holder in terms

of the appellate court's order as contended by the

petitioners.

61] The reliance is placed by the petitioners /

transferee in the case of Khemchand Shankar Choudhary

and another Vs. Vishnu Hari Patil & others reported in AIR

1983 SC 124, wherein the Supreme Court at para no.6 has

held as under :

13576.19WP+

"6. .... In the case of transferees pendente lite also, if there is no dispute, the Collector may proceed to make allotment of properties in an equitable manner instead of rejecting their claim for such equitable partition on the ground that they have no locus standi. A transferee from a party of a property which is the subject matter of partition can exercise all the rights of the transferor. There is no dispute that a party can ask for an equitable partition. A transferee from him, therefore, can also do so. Such a construction of Sec. 54 of the Civil P. C. advances the cause of justice. Otherwise in every case where a party dies, or where a party is adjudicated as an insolvent or where he transfers some interest in the suit property pendente lite the matter has got to be referred back to the Civil Court even though there may be no dispute about the succession, devolution or transfer of interest. In any such case where there is no dispute if the Collector makes an equitable partition taking into consideration the interests of all concerned including those on whom any interest in the subject matter has devolved, he would neither be violating the decree nor transgressing any law......."

13576.19WP+

62] Relying upon the aforesaid judgment, the

transferee contends that they can seek equitable partition of

the property more so as the transferee claims to have

stepped into the shoes of the transferor and can claim every

thing that the transferor can claim against the decree

holder.

63] In this respect, it is necessary to note the

order dated 02.08.2017 passed by the Supreme Court in

Civil Appeal No.3586 of 2010 wherein the Hon'ble Supreme

Court has held that the effect of the preliminary decree

which has attained finality has to be taken into

consideration while executing the decree [or final decree

proceedings]. By the preliminary decree, the shares of the

parties are apportioned. The shares of the plaintiffs and

defendants are crystallized in the preliminary decree which

has attained finality. The Hon'ble Supreme court in the case

of T.Ravi and another Vs. B. Chinna Narasimha and others

reported in [2017] 7 SCC 342 has examined the effect of

preliminary decree having attained finality and has held at

13576.19WP+

para no.45, 46 and 47 as under :

(iv) In re : What is the effect of preliminary decree for partition and the extent to which it is binding ?

45. In the instant case preliminary decree was passed in the year 1970 and the shares were declared to the aforesaid extent of the respective parties therein who were the heirs of late Nawab Jung. Hamid Ali Khan, Defendant 1, had only 14/104th share in the disputed property. Preliminary decree dated 24-11-1970 has attained finality which was questioned in appeal on limited extent in the High Court which has attained finality by dismissal of LPA on 12-10-1977. Thus the determination of shares as per preliminary decree has attained finality, shares of the parties had been crystallised in each and every property. Purchaser pendente lite is bound by the preliminary decree with respect to the shares so determined and it cannot be reopened and whatever equity could have been claimed in the final decree proceedings to the extent of the vendor's share has already been extended to the purchasers.

46. ...... Therefore, if the reason given by the High Court is accepted it would mean that no

13576.19WP+

finality attaches to decree at all. That is not the law. A decision is said to be final when, so far as the court rendering it is concerned, it is unalterable except by resort to such provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure as permit its reversal, modification or amendment. Similarly, a final decision would mean a decision which would operate as res judicata between the parties if it is not sought to be modified or reversed by preferring an appeal or a revision or a review application as is permitted by the Code. A preliminary decree passed, whether it is in a mortgage suit or a partition suit, is not a tentative decree but must, insofar as the matters dealt with by it are concerned, be regarded as conclusive. No doubt, in suits which contemplate the making of two decrees a preliminary decree and a final decree the decree which would be executable would be the final decree. But the finality of a decree or a decision does not necessarily depend upon its being executable. The legislature in its wisdom has thought that suits of certain types should be decided in stages and though the suit in such cases can be regarded as fully and completely decided only after a final decree is made the decision of the court arrived at the earlier stage also has a finality attached to it. It would be relevant to refer to Section 97 of the Code of Civil Procedure which provides that where a party aggrieved by a

13576.19WP+

preliminary decree does not appeal from it, he is precluded from disputing its correctness in any appeal which may be preferred from the final decree. This provision thus clearly indicates that as to the matters covered by it, a preliminary decree is regarded as embodying the final decision of the court passing that decree."

47. Moreover, it is provided in Section 97 CPC as under:

"97. Appeal from final decree where no appeal from preliminary decree. - Where any party aggrieved by a preliminary decree passed after the commencement of this Code does not appeal from such decree, he shall be precluded from disputing its correctness in any appeal which may be preferred from the final decree."

It is apparent from the aforesaid Section that the matters which are concluded by preliminary decree cannot be reagitated in an appeal against the final decree. No appeal was preferred by the purchasers or by Defendant 1 as against the preliminary decree.

64] Thus, in the instant case the preliminary

decree has attained finality after the judgment of the

appellate court. In the decree each of the parties are

granted definite share in each of the ten properties involved

13576.19WP+

in the suit. Thereafter the defendant nos. 7 and 8 cannot

transfer anything beyond the share available to the

defendant nos. 7 and 8 in each of the property and the

transferor having transferred beyond their share, the

adjustment of the share of the decree holders in equitable

partition would be unlawful as has been observed by the

Supreme Court in the same judgment i.e. in the case of

T.Ravi and another Vs. B. Chinna Narasimha and others

[supra] at para no.85 has held as under :

85. Though it is true that the purchasers can work out the equity in the final decree proceedings but it is only to the legally permissible extent and not beyond that. The preliminary decree declared the shares in Item 6 of Schedule B property in specified shares. The preliminary decree is binding and even otherwise the sale was valid only to the extent of the share of Defendant 1 i.e. 14/104th share in the specific property and not beyond it. This Court in K. Adivi Naidu v. E. Duruvasulu Naidu, has laid down that when a specific property comprising of undivided share in the joint family properties is purchased by the appellants from alienee of karta of the joint family prior to partition suit and where the preliminary decree in partition suit directed that properties be divided by metes and bounds, taking the good and bad qualities thereof, then the preliminary decree was allowed to become final.

This Court held that the trial court should give effect to the preliminary decree, and though the

13576.19WP+

appellants had no equities, the restrictive share to which the principal alienator was entitled, should be allotted to them as a special case. In the instant case, preliminary decree has declared the share only to the extent of 14/104th in the disputed property in Item 6, Schedule B. Thus, by no equitable principle the purchaser can claim the entire property to be allotted to him.

65] The plaintiffs have received share is specified

properties under the decree which has attained finality.

Thus, the petitioners having purchased suit lands beyond

share of the transferors - defendants in the properties

specified in the decree the transferees are not entitled to

claim equity and claim entire property purchased by them

from the transferor, by adjusting the entire share of the

tranferor in the suit property is the land purchased by the

transferee and dislodge the plaintiff [decree holder] of the

properties received in partition and adjust the plaintiff in

balance properties of the suit.

66] Thus, reliance placed on the judgment of the

Khemchand Shankar Choudhary [supra] is misconceived as

in the instant case the petitioners have purchased the suit

13576.19WP+

property beyond the share of the defendants after decree

had attained finality and the shares of each of the party

being crystallized and as such cannot claim anything

beyond the decree which has attained finality.

67] Be that as it may, in the course of argument, I

had asked the learned counsel appearing for the objectors

what according to them would constitute equitable

partition. The oral suggestions which came from the counsel

for the objectors would mean that the decree holder would

almost get nothing and all objectors would be entitled to

hold on to the purchased property although they have

purchased it after the decree. The objectors are holding on

to the property for long period of time in the name of

equitable partition of the property. Not a square feet of land

is received by the decree holder for last 60 years from the

date of decree. The objectors have been able to prolong the

litigation for long period of time by raising frivolous points

and arguing the matter afresh before different courts. The

objectors have purchased the litigation, as observed by the

13576.19WP+

Hon'ble Supreme Court. No equity can flow in favour of the

purchasers for the purchase made after the decree which

has attained finality.

68] As regards submissions of Mr.Kulkarni, learned

counsel appearing for the petitioners in Writ Petition

No.13576 of 2019, the plaintiff would be entitled to 7/8th

share only after amendment is carried out in the plaint and

that perusal of the record so far as he is not able to trace

whether such amendment is carried out. The submission of

the learned counsel is misplaced. The decree is

modified on 23.12.1963 by the trial Court in terms of the

direction of the appellate court and the same is possible

only after necessary amendment to plaint. The amendment

is obviously carried out in the plaint. Even otherwise there

was no objection raised to the modification of the decree of

the trial Court in terms of the order of the appellate court

and that the modified decree is not challenged by any party

to the suit at any point of time. The objectors, who have

now intervened at a later stage after the decree has attained

13576.19WP+

finality by purchasing the suit property from the judgment

debtor, have created one obstruction or the other by raising

frivolous technical grounds before lower authority to the

highest Court and has not allowed the decree holder to get

fruits of its decree.

69] As regards, the submission of the learned

counsel Mr.S.S.Thombre appearing for the petitioner in Writ

Petition No.14790 of 2019 that the tenancy issue is not

concluded, it needs to be noted that the same has been

argued in earlier round of litigation and the Supreme Court

has observed in its order dated 2 nd August, 2017 that the

effect of surrender of tenancy in the year 1952 has to be

taken into consideration while considering the execution of

decree. Although the tenancy was surrendered in the year

1952, the defendant nos. 7 and 8 approached the appellate

court on the ground of the issue of tenancy, praying before

the appellate court that the issue of tenancy is required to

be decided and thereafter did nothing further to get it

adjudicated. It was only when the report was called from

13576.19WP+

the Tahsildar in the execution proceedings before the

Collector, the examination of the record revealed that

tenancy was surrendered in the year 1952. Although the

Hon'ble Supreme court has already concluded this issue,

yet, same arguments are raised every time before different

Judge.

70] As regards submission of Mr.A.P.Bhandari,

learned counsel appearing for the petitioners relating to the

properties at Survey Nos.53/1A is concerned, frivolous

attempt is made by the learned advocate to contest the

partition chart prepared by the Collector claiming that the

objector has independent right over the property survey

No.53/1A although the objector has purchased the property

from the judgment debtor.

71] As regards the contentions regarding Survey

Nos.53/1B which is now read as Survey Nos. 53/1A,

nobody has disputed the area of land of 3 Acres as in plaint

and decree which is available for partition in Survey No.

53/1B of village Chahurana (Bk.). The Collector, who was

13576.19WP+

directed by this Court in Writ Petition No.1597 of 2002 to

complete execution himself had directed the competent

authority District Inspector of Land Record to verify record

and submit a report. The District Inspector of Land Record

found that Survey No. 53/1B due to the change in hissa

form No.12 was changed to Survey No.53/1A and the area

is same 3 Acres, therefore, Revenue Authority found

themselves Survey No.53/1B is in the suit Survey No.

53/1A, and therefore, there is no change in the area and

would be available to the parties and no prejudice would be

caused to anyone of the parties because the area in the

original suit is of Survey No.53/1B, is 3 Acres only. The area

description is important in identifying the property,

therefore, the contentions that the land is deleted from

Survey No. 53/1B and land is included from Survey No.

53/1A is not correct. Further the petitioners claim their

right through defendant no.8 and thus cannot raise any

contention beyond the contention of defendant no.8, who

had accepted partition of Survey No. 53/1A. In the

execution proceedings, original judgment debtors have

13576.19WP+

accepted the partition in respect of the land at Survey

No.53/1A and 53/1B having area of 3 Acres. The legal heirs

of original defendant no.7 has accepted the partition in

respect of land Survey nos.52/1 and 52/2 before the

Collector, and thus, in terms of the order dated 04.12.2023

passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the petitioners

cannot claim any right beyond the judgment debtors, since

the decree as partitioned by the Collector is accepted by the

original defendants / transferor.

72] However, in the interest of justice, I deem it

necessary to make certain observations on the chart

prepared by the Collector for distribution of the suit

properties. As regards property Nos.46/2 and 131, no land

is given to the share of the plaintiffs and 1/8th share is

given to the defendant no.1. As such, the transferee of the

said property would have an independent right against their

vendor, if necessary in an independent proceedings. Writ

Petition Nos. 13928/2019, 13700/2019, 14787/2019 and

14786/2019 are concerned, the defendants have purchased

13576.19WP+

the properties from the defendants [judgment debtors] and

their rights would be independent qua the vendors to the

extent of the share of the vendor from whom they have

purchased the property and they may agitate their rights

independently qua the vendors.

73] As regards Writ Petition No.13927 of 2019, the

petitioner has purchased the property no.50/4 from the

defendant no.1 and the plaintiff no.1. However, no share in

the said property is assigned to the plaintiff nos. 2 and 3. As

such, writ petitioner would have independent claim on the

said property against his own vendor and the same can be

agitated independently if necessary.

74] The learned Single Judge in its judgment and

order dated 27th March, 2018 in Writ Petition No.276 of

2008 has noticed that the matter was argued before him on

05.03.2018 to 08.03.2018 and 10.03.2018 i.e. for 5 days, so

also, before me, these matters were argued on 12.12.2023,

13.12.2023, 14.12.2023, 15.12.2023, 18.12.2023,

19.12.2023 and 20.12.2023 i.e. for 7 days in the post lunch

13576.19WP+

session. In view of the directions contained in the order of

the Supreme Court, the matters were taken up for hearing

on day to day basis.

75] It is required to be noticed that the decree of

trial Court in the year 1957 was challenged only on the

ground of tenancy over the suit property by defendant nos.

7 and 8 and although they were aware of surrender of

tenancy in the year 1952. Thereafter, when the decree was

finalized by the appellate court, the suit property was

purchased by the objectors. The objector has raised multiple

objections at various stages to frustrate the execution of the

decree. The objectors have acted in tandem and the same is

obvious from the fact that after the remand order was

passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court dated 02.08.2017, the

Hon'ble Single Judge had concluded that the transferee had

no right to be heard independent of the transferor. Although

LPA was not available against the said judgment of the

Single Judge and the judgment of Single Judge had attained

finality the objectors in a parallel proceedings were

13576.19WP+

successful in setting aside the observations at para 38 (e) of

the judgment of the Single Judge. Multiple obstructions are

created by frivolous litigation after purchasing the litigation

(as is observed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court) and thus

the Decree holder is not able to get the fruits of their decree

and the transferee has remained in possession of the large

property of the plaintiff nos.2 and 3 for decades. As such I

am constrained to impose heavy cost on the writ petitioners,

who are holding unjustifiably possession of land in shares of

plaintiff nos. 2 and 3 for decades.

76] Thus, I proceed to pass the following order :

ORDER

a] As the properties assigned to the share of

plaintiff no.2 and plaintiff no.3, who are contesting the

execution proceedings before various courts, are held in the

possession of the petitioners in Writ Petition

Nos.13576/2019, 14790/2019, 13704/2019, 13693/2019

and 3760/2021 for decades, the Writ Petitions are dismissed

with cost of Rs.10 lacs in each Writ Petition to be paid to the

13576.19WP+

plaintiff no.2 and plaintiff no.3 equally, within 8 weeks. The

same amount to be adjusted in an enquiry for mesne profits.

b] Writ Petition Nos.13928/2019, 13700/2019,

14787/2019, 14786/2019 and 13927/2019 are dismissed

with no order as to costs.

c] In view of the directions of the Hon'ble

Supreme Court, the execution proceedings to be completed

within two months from 4th December, 2023.



                                     [ARUN R. PEDNEKER]
                                            JUDGE


.           After      pronouncement         of       judgment,

Mr.A.P.Bhandari, learned counsel for the petitioners seeks

stay to the judgment and prays for continuance of the

interim order passed earlier in the Writ Petitions.

. However, in view of the directions given by the

Hon'ble Supreme Court, in its order dated 4th December,

2023 in Petitions for Special Leave to Appeal (C) No (s).

25285-25286/2019 to conclude the execution proceedings

13576.19WP+

within a period of two months, the interim stay order

cannot be extended.

. The matters to be listed before the Collector on

5th January, 2024 for further proceedings in execution.
