THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ABHINAND KUMAR SHAVILI
CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.1326 of 2020
ORDER:
This Civil Revision Petition is filed by the
petitioner/plaintiff challenging the order dated 01.10.2020 in
E.P.No.122 of 2020 in O.S.No.60 of 2018 passed by the
Sub-Divisional Magistrate and Special Assistant Agent to
Government, Mobile Court, Bhadrachalam (hereinafter
referred to as "the Court below").
Heard Sri K. Sarath, learned counsel for the
petitioner/plaintiff and Sri R.R. Kalyan, learned counsel
appearing for implead petitioners/respondent Nos.3 and 4.
Despite service of notice, none appears for respondent Nos.1
and 2.
Learned counsel for the petitioner/plaintiff had
contended that before passing impugned order dated
01.10.2020, no opportunity was given to the petitioner and
without hearing the petitioner, the Court below has passed
impugned order dated 01.10.2020. He further contends that
after passing the judgment and decree dated 21.08.2018 in
O.S.No.60 of 2018, the petitioner has filed E.P.No.122 of 2020
in O.S.No.60 of 2018 seeking police protection and the Court
below was pleased to provide police protection vide order
dated 24.06.2020. While the petitioner was enjoying the said AKS,J
police protection, without hearing and without giving any
opportunity to the petitioner, the Court below has
mechanically closed E.P.No.122 of 2020 basing on the report
submitted by the Tahsildar, Julurupadu, which report was
called for behind the back of the petitioner. Learned counsel
for the petitioner, therefore, contends that impugned order
dated 01.10.2020 passed by the Court below is contrary to
law and violative of the principles of natural justice and the
same is liable to be set aside and the police protection
granted to the petitioner vide order dated 24.06.2020 be
restored and let the Court below pass orders in accordance
with law after giving opportunity to the petitioner.
Sri R.R. Kalyan, learned counsel for implead
petitioners/respondent Nos.3 and 4 would contend that
respondent Nos.3 and 4 are actual owners of the subject land
and without impleading them as defendants, the revision
petitioner has filed suit O.S.No.60 of 2018 and obtained
judgment and decree dated 21.08.2018. He would further
contend that the revision petitioner is claiming the subject
land through her vendor i.e., Smt. Miryala Seshamma, and
the implead petitioners/respondent Nos.3 and 4 have filed
O.S.No.199 of 1992 seeking perpetual injunction against the
said Smt. Miryala Seshamma and one Parvathaneni Vijaya
Kumar and the same was decreed in favour of the implead
petitioners/respondent Nos.3 and 4 vide judgment and decree
dated 23.12.1996 in O.S.No.199 of 1992 passed by the AKS,J
Principal District Munsif, Kothagudem. As the revision
petitioner has filed O.S.No.60 of 2018 against the property of
implead petitioners without impleading them as defendants,
the implead petitioners have filed un-numbered E.A.No. of
2020 in E.P.No.122 of 2020 in O.S.No.60 of 2018 before the
Court below. Learned counsel for the implead petitioners,
therefore, contends that let the Court below also hear E.A.No.
of 2020 preferred by the implead petitioners and pass
appropriate orders in accordance with law.
Despite service of notice, none appears for respondent
Nos.1 and 2 herein and they were also remained exparte, both
at the time of passing judgment and decree dated 21.08.2018
in O.S.No.60 of 2018 as well as while passing order dated
24.06.2020 in E.P.No.122 of 2020 in O.S.No.60 of 2018
providing police protection to the revision petitioner.
Having considered the rival submissions made by
learned counsel for the respective parties, this Court is of the
considered view that the Court below erred in closing
E.P.No.122 of 2020 in O.S.No.60 of 2018 without giving any
opportunity and without hearing the revision
petitioner/plaintiff, which is contrary to law and violative of
the principles of natural justice and on this ground alone,
impugned order dated 01.10.2020 in E.P.No.122 of 2020 in
O.S.No.60 of 2018 passed by the Court below is liable to be
set aside and, it is accordingly, set aside and the police
protection provided to the revision petitioner vide order dated AKS,J
24.06.2020 stands restored. The Court below is directed to
hear E.P.No.122 of 2020 in O.S.No.60 of 2018 along with un-
numbered E.A.No. of 2020 in E.P.No.122 of 2020 in
O.S.No.60 of 2018 and pass appropriate orders in accordance
with law, after giving opportunity to both the revision
petitioner as well as implead petitioners/respondent Nos.3
and 4.
With the above observations, this Civil Revision Petition
is disposed of. No order as to costs.
Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand
closed.
