Judgment / Order
27/09/2023
This revision petition, which is reported to be time barred by
127 days, is accompanied with an application under Section 5 of
the Limitation Act, 1963.
[2023:RJ-JP:25539] (2 of 3) [CR-154/2015]
For the reasons stated in the application, the same is
allowed. The delay in preferring the revision petition is condoned.
This revision petition is directed against the order dated
13.02.2015 passed by the learned Additional Civil Judge, Jaipur
Metropolitan, Jaipur (for brevity, "the learned trial Court") in Civil
Suit No.522/2008 whereby, an application filed by the
petitioner/defendant no.1 (for brevity, "the defendant no.1")
under Order 7 Rule 11 CPC has been dismissed.
The relevant facts in brief are that the respondent
no.1/plaintiff (for brevity, "the plaintiff") filed a suit for permanent
injunction against the defendant no.1 and the respondents no.2 to
4 alleging therein that the defendant no.1 wants to raise
construction on the subject land against the Building Bye-Laws
and without seeking prior permission from the competent
authority. It was further alleged that the building already existing
on the subject land is being used by the defendant no.1 for
marriage and other ceremonies which causes nuisance to the local
residents. Therefore, the decree as aforesaid was prayed for.
Therein, the defendant no.1 filed an application under Order 7
Rule 11 CPC raising objection as to maintainability of the suit in
view of the provisions of Sections 99 & 83 of the Jaipur
Development Authority Act, 1982 (for brevity, "the Act of 1982").
The application has been dismissed by the learned trial Court vide
order dated 13.02.2015, impugned herein.
Assailing the order impugned, learned counsel for the
defendant no.1 submits that in view of provisions contained in the
Act of 1982, the suit is not maintainable in the civil Court as the
jurisdiction to try it lies with the Appellate Tribunal, Jaipur
[2023:RJ-JP:25539] (3 of 3) [CR-154/2015]
Development Authority. He, therefore, prays that the civil revision
petition be allowed, the order dated 13.02.2015 be quashed and
set aside and the plaint be rejected.
Per contra, learned counsel for the plaintiff would submit that
the suit is not hit by the provisions of Sections 99 & 83 of the Act
of 1982. He submits that in addition to the prayer seeking
injunction against the defendant no.1 not to raise construction
without seeking prior permission from the competent authority,
there is another prayer for a decree for restraining the respondent
no.1 from causing nuisance which cannot be granted by the
learned Tribunal established under Section 83 of the Act of 1982.
He, therefore, prays for dismissal of the revision petition.
Heard. Considered.
Indisputably, in the suit, in addition to the prayer for a
decree of injunction restraining the defendant no.1 not to raise
construction without seeking prior permission of the competent
authority, it is further prayed that the respondent no.1 may be
restrained from causing nuisance, a relief, which cannot be
granted by the Appellate Tribunal constituted under Section 83 of
the Act of 1982.
In view thereof, in the considered opinion of this Court, the
learned trial Court did not err in dismissing the application filed by
the defendant no.1 under Order 7 Rule 11 CPC.
Resultantly, this revision petition is dismissed being devoid of
merit.
