THIS WRIT PETITION COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING IN ‘B’ GROUP THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: ORAL ORDER (PER: THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE R.DEVDAS) This writ petition is filed by the defendants No.1 and 4 in O.S. No. 241/2021 being aggrieved of the order of temporary injunction granted by the trial Court as well as the appellate Court. At the outset, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that petitioner No.1 is the father and petitioner No.2/ defendant No.4 are the parents of the plaintiff. It is not denied by the plaintiff that the suit schedule properties were purchased by the petitioners herein under registered sale deeds dated 07.01.2008. However the plaintiff contends that the properties were purchased by his parents/ defendants No.1 and 4 from out of the income of the joint family and therefore the plaintiff is seeking - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC-D:14771 WP No. 102639 of 2022 partition and separate possession of the suit schedule properties. The appellate Court has opined that the question as to whether the properties were purchased from out of the funds of the joint family or self acquired properties of defendants No.1 and 4, is a matter of trial. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that it would suffice if the order passed by the trial Court “not to create any charge over the suit schedule properties” is modified while maintaining the directions “not to alienate”. Learned counsel submits that the petitioners seek to obtain the loan from a bank only for the purposes of developing agricultural lands. At this juncture learned counsel for the respondent No.1/ plaintiff submits that such modification may be made while maintaining the direction of temporary injunction “not to alienate the suit schedule properties” during the course of the suit proceedings. Accordingly the writ petition stands disposed of while modifying the orders passed by the trial Court on the - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC-D:14771 WP No. 102639 of 2022 application for temporary injunction filed at the hands of the plaintiff, to the extent that defendants No.1 to 4 shall not alienate the suit schedule property during the pendency of the suit. However, the defendants are at liberty to raise a loan on the suit schedule property only for the purpose of developing the lands and cultivate the property in question. Ordered accordingly.
