SA No. 201 of 2012
Bisheshar @ Bishat (died) Through Lrs. Versus Dr. Girdhari Lal
SA/200/2012 and SA/199/2012
27.04.2022 Mr. Sanjay Agrawal, counsel for the appellants.
Mr. Manoj Paranjpe and Mr. Anurag Singh, counsel for the
respective respondents.
Mr. Vimlesh Bajpai, G.A. and Shri Ravi Maheshwari, Panel Lawyer for the State.
The appellants/plaintiffs have filed the present second appeal under Section 100 of the C.P.C. challenging the impugned judgment and decree dated 22.02.2012 passed by Second Additional Sessions Judge, Mahasamund (C.G.) in Civil Appeal No. 80A/2011 arising out of judgment and decree dated 14.08.2008 passed by learned Civil Judge Class-II, Mahasamund, District- Mahasamund (C.G.) in Civil Suit No. 116A/2005 by which the suit filed by the plaintiffs for grant of possession and permanent injunction of the land bearing Khasra No. 477/2 has been dismissed.
From bare perusal of the plaint and the judgment passed by the trial Court, it is clear that there is dispute with regard to demarcation and boundary of the property, this can be examined by the Commissioner only. Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Haryana Waqf Board vs. Shanti Sarup and others reported in (2008) 8 SCC 671 has held that second appeal should not have been dismissed summarily and Local Commissioner should be appointed for the purpose of demarcation in respect of the suit land. Again Hon'ble the Supreme Court in Rahul S. Shah vs. Jinendra
Kumar Gandhi and others reported in (2021) 6 SCC 418 has also held that though it is a case of execution of decree, but Hon'ble Supreme Court in exercise of power under Article 142 read with Article 141 and Article 144 of the Constitution of India has emphasized for appointment of Commissioner if there is dispute with regard demarcation of property and the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that in appropriate cases, where the possession is not in dispute and not a question of fact for adjudication before the Court, the Court may appoint Commissioner to assess the accurate description and status of the property. In the present case also there is dispute of demarcation of the property which can only be decided with the help of Commissioner.
With the consent of the parties, Mr. Ashok Kumar Gupta, Advocate who is empanelled in the Legal Aid Committee Mahasamund, is appointed as Commissioner for demarcation of the suit land.
It is directed that the fee paid to the Commissioner is fixed for Rs. 25,000/-. Out of which Rs. 10,000/- shall be incurred from the appellants/ plaintiffs and Rs. 15,000/- shall be incurred from respective respondents equally.

The Commissioner is also directed to issue notice to the parties for demarcation of the suit land through registered post with acknowledgement for appearance of the parties with regard to demarcation of the land.
The Collector, Mahasamund is also directed to provide assistance to the Commissioner by providing services of Tahsildar and other revenue officer which are essential for proper demarcation of the suit land.
