COURT BE PLEASED TO ALLOW WRIT PETITION PRAYING TO A

THIS WRIT PETITION IS COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY
HEARING IN 'B' GROUP,, THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE
FOLLOWING:
ORDER
Writ petition is filed with the following prayer:
"Hence, it is most humbly prayed that, this Hon'ble Court be pleased to allow writ petition filed by the petitioner and issue:
a. A writ of certiorari quashing the impugned order passed by respondent No. 3 file No. CTS:APL:SR-2/2012- 13 on dated 25-1-2017 vide Annexure-B, in the interest of justice and equity.

c. Any other order, writ, or direction as this Hon'ble Court deems fit may kindly be granted."
NC: 2024:KHC-K:2003
2. Grievance of the petitioner is that he has been
protected by an order of permanent injunction by the judgment
passed in O.S.No.643/2009 dated 02.03.2015. Petitioner is the
second plaintiff in the said suit.
3. Despite the same, the third respondent without
evicting the petitioner from the suit property in accordance with
law, passed an order vide Annexure-B, canceling the entries
made in the records in respect of ward No.6 in respect of the
property which was the subject matter of the suit.
4. Said action is called in question by the writ
petitioner.
5. Learned High Court Government Pleader and
learned counsel for the first respondent, no doubt tried to
persuade the Court that the petitioner is only a lessee and not
the owner in possession of the property and therefore, the
impugned order under Annexure-B is justified.
NC: 2024:KHC-K:2003
6. In view of the rival contentions of the parties, this
Court perused the material on record. On such perusal, it is
crystal clear that the suit came to be filed by the petitioner
herein who was the second plaintiff and there is an order of
injunction, protecting the possession of the property of the
petitioner with liberty for the Authorities to take action in
accordance with law.
7. In other words, without initiating any proper
proceedings, writ petitioner should not be evicted from the
subject matter of the property. Despite the same, instead of
taking action by terminating the lease of the petitioner or any
other recourse under the law, canceling the entries in the
registers maintained by the Government is uncalled for and
therefore, a case is made out for quashing Annexure-B.
Hence, the following:
ORDER
Writ petition is allowed.
NC: 2024:KHC-K:2003
Impugned order file No.CTS:APL:SR-2/2012-13 at
Annexure-B is hereby quashed.
However, respondent Nos.2 and 3 are at liberty to take
appropriate action in accordance with law for eviction of the
writ petitioner.
