Sandeep Sharma, Judge (oral):
Being aggrieved and dis-satisfied with order dated
12.11.2020, passed by the learned Civil Judge, Court No. VI, District
Shimla, whereby court below while disposing of an application under
Section 151 CPC, having been filed by the respondents-plaintiffs
(hereinafter referred to as "the plaintiffs"), seeking therein direction to
the petitioners-defendants (in short "the defendants"), to remove the
left out debris from the plot of the plaintiffs, permitted the plaintiffs to
remove the debris from the plot in question during the pendency of
the suit, defendants have approached this Court in the instant
Whether the reporters of the local papers may be allowed to see the judgment?
proceedings filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, praying
therein to set aside the aforesaid impugned order.
.
2. Having regard to the nature of order proposed to be
passed in the instant case, this court sees no reason to issues notice to
the respondents and as such, same is dispensed with.
3. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and perused
averments contained in the petition vis-à-vis reasoning assigned by the
learned court below while passing the impugned order, this Court sees
no illegality and infirmity in the impugned order and as such, no
interference is called for.
4. Close scrutiny of the material available on record reveals
that plaintiffs filed a suit for recovery and mandatory injunction,
seeking direction to the defendants to remove the left out debris from
the plot comprising khata khatauni No. 17/22, khasra No. 729/17,
measuring 03-12 hectares situated at Mohal Rajhana, Patwar Circle
Kasumpti, Tehsil and District Shimla, H.P.
5. In the aforesaid suit, plaintiffs filed an application under
Section 151 CPC, seeking therein direction to the defendants to
remove the left out debris from the plot. Since defendants by way of
reply to the aforesaid application disputed the factum of throwing
debris on the plot of the plaintiffs, court below having taken note of
the danger to the property of the plaintiffs, permitted the plaintiffs to
remove the debris from the plot in question. However, while passing
.
aforesaid order, court below has very cautiously recorded in para 9 of
the impugned order that grant of relief as detailed herein above
would in no manner amount to passing of decree in favour of the
plaintiffs and in case, plaintiffs want to place on record bill of payment
qua removed debris in the court record, the same shall be placed
after following proper procedure. Besides above, court has further
recorded in its order that it has come to conclusion that respondents
are facing difficulty on account of debris stacked on the premises in
question and as such, same deserves to be removed immediately.
Since court below having taken note of the danger to the property of
the plaintiffs has permitted the plaintiffs to remove the debris and has
not returned specific finding holding the defendants responsible for
throwing debris on the plot in question, no prejudice, if any, can be
said to have been caused to the defendants on account of passing of
aforesaid order.
6. Consequently, in view of the above, there is no merit in the
present petition and same is dismissed being devoid of any merit.
However, it is clarified that order impugned before this court shall have
no bearing on the main case, especially qua the allegation/claim of
the plaintiffs that defendants have thrown the debris on the plot, which
shall be decided on the basis of totality of evidence collected on
.
record by the parties to the lis. Pending application(s), if any, also
stand disposed of.
