----Respondents

For Appellant(s) : Mr. Aaksh Kukkar For Respondent(s) : Mr. Baljinder Singh Sandhu, Mr. S.K. Shreemali

HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. AKIL KURESHI HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP MEHTA

Judgment

21/10/2021

This appeal is directed against the order of the learned

Single Judge dated 10.03.2021, by which the writ petition of the

respondent No.1 herein has been admitted and by way of interim

relief, the operation of the order dated 10.02.2021, which was

(7 of 7) [SAW-223/2021]

challenged in the writ petition, has been stayed. The issue

pertained to right of way claimed by the respondent No.1 through

the agriculture land occupied by the petitioner, who happens to be

his brother.

In our view, the issue should be decided in the pending

appeal before the Revenue Appellate Authority and the

proceedings before this Court, particularly when the appeal is still

pending, should not be kept alive.

Accordingly, the appeal may be decided by the Revenue

Appellate Authority as far as possible within four months from the

date of receipt of copy of this order. Such appeal shall be decided

unmindful of any observations made by the Revenue Board.

Till the appeal is decided, both parties shall maintain status

quo with respect to the present status of the right of way claimed

by the respondent No.1.

Under the circumstances, the appeal is disposed of. CWP

No.4072/2021 has also become infructuous and the same is

disposed of accordingly.
