RSA No.50 of 2022
Sri Haradhan Nama and Anr.
---Appellants
Versus
Smti Anima Dey (Saha)
---Respondent
For Appellant(s) : Mr. Pradip Chakraborty, Advocate For respondent(s) : None
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ARINDAM LODH
Order 31/01/2023
Heard Mr. Pradip Chakraborty, learned counsel appearing for the
appellants, who were the original defendants.
The plaintiff had instituted the suit for declaration of right title and
interest and recovery of possession.
Despite receipt of notice, the defendants did not appear before the
learned trial Court and the suit was proceeded ex-parte.
On consideration of evidence and materials on record, the learned
trial Court below had passed the decree directing the defendants to
vacate the suit land.
The defendants preferred first appeal before the court of learned
District Judge, West Tripura, Agartala wherefrom it was transferred to
the Court of learned Addl. District Judge, West Tripura Agartala.
The learned Addl. Dist Judge after hearing the learned counsels
appearing for the parties upheld and affirmed the judgment and decree
passed by the learned trial Court.
Hence this second appeal before this Court.
At the time of hearing of the appeal at the admission stage, this
court has inquired from the learned counsel for the appellants whether
any execution proceeding is pending before the executing court. Mr.
Chakraborty, learned counsel for the appellants has submitted that an
execution proceeding is going on and the appellants have submitted
objection under Section 47 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908.
However, Mr. Chakraborty in support of the present second appeal has
proposed for formulating two substantial questions of law which are as
under:-
1. The plaintiff has failed to prove his possession and
subsequent dispossession from the suit land.
2. Another substantial question of law learned counsel has tried
to propose is that learned Addl. District Judge while disposing of
the first appeal has not complied with the essentialities as
contemplated under Order-41 Rule-31 of the CPC.
I have considered the submissions of learned counsel for the
appellants.
To deal with the first substantial question of law as proposed by the
learned counsel for the appellants, I am of the considered view that the
possession and dispossession is a true question of fact and when both the
trial Court as well as the first appellate Court came to a conclusion over
the possession and dispossession, then, this Court will not interfere with
such questions of fact, which have already been decided by both the
learned courts below.
In view of the above, I find no merit in the first substantial question
of law as tried to be proposed by the learned counsel for the appellants.
To deal with the second proposed substantial question of law, I
have perused the judgment passed by learned Addl. District Judge,
wherefrom I do not find any merit in the submission of learned counsel
for the appellants that the essentialities as contemplated under Order 41
Rule 31 of the CPC have not been complied with.
In view of the above discussions, the proposed substantial
questions of law as proposed to be formulated stand rejected. However,
under Section-47 of CPC, the executing court has every right to decide
all questions to be raised against the judgment and decree dated
23.09.2022.
The matter is decided accordingly.
In the light of above observations, the present second appeal stands
disposed.
