Judgment / Order
22/08/2023
This contempt petition has been filed alleging willful
disobedience of the interim order dated 07.05.2015 passed by this
Court whereby, operation of the order dated 20.05.2014 passed
by the Board of Revenue was stayed.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that despite
aforesaid interim order, the respondents have raised construction
on the subject property. He, therefore, prays that the respondents
[2023:RJ-JP:18639] (2 of 2) [CCP-1172/2017]
may be directed to purge the contempt and they may also be
punished suitably.
Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents submits that
no contempt has been committed.
Heard. Considered.
Vide interim order dated 07.05.2015, this Court has stayed
the operation of the order dated 20.05.2014 passed by the Board
of Revenue. A perusal of the order dated 20.05.2014 reveals that
while allowing the appeal preferred by the respondents-
contemnors, the judgment and decree dated 30.08.2011 passed
by the Court of Sub-Divisional Officer, Nadbai was maintained. A
perusal of the judgment and decree dated 30.08.2011 reveals that
the parties were held and declared Khatedar of 1/4th share of the
subject land. There has been no direction by any of the Court to
the parties to maintain status quo qua subject property.
In view thereof, even if the respondents have raised
construction despite interim order dated 07.05.2015 , they cannot
be held guilty under contempt.
Resultantly, this contempt petition is dismissed being devoid
of merit.
Notices are discharged.
