The trial Court had allowed the application filed by the plaintiff under Order 39 Rule 1 and 2 by the order dated 30.04.2022 (Annexure P/16). By the said order, it was directed that temporary injunction is granted only in relation to land in Survey No.221/1/1 claimed by the plaintiff and it has no relevance to land in survey No.208 claimed by defendant. It was further observed that authorities are free to take action on any illegal interference/encroachment on both the survey numbers. Thereafter, the defendant also filed separate application for injunction in respect of survey No.208/1/1/3 and prayed to restrain the plaintiff from interfering in his possession. It is this application which has been allowed by the trial Court by order Annexure P/2 and confirmed by the appellate Court by Annexure P/1 dated 06.10.2023. 4. The interesting feature of this case is that separate injunction orders have been passed in favour of plaintiff as well as the defendant vide orders Annexures P/16 and P/2. In both the orders, it has been directed by the trial Court that the parties will remain in possession of their respective land in their respective survey numbers and will not interfere/illegally encroach on survey number/land of each other. In both the orders, the authorities have been granted liberty to take action, if any illegal interference/encroachment is made by any of the parties on the land of the other party. 5. As the rival parties claimed different lands and the real dispute relates to boundaries/identity of the land, it is appropriate that the trial Court is directed to decide the suit expeditiously preferably within a period of ten months from the date of communication of copy of this order. It is observed that both the parties will not encroach/interfere on possession of the rival party and will 2 Signed by: RAJESH KUMAR JYOTISHI Signing time: 12/1/2023 6:40:24 PM (VIVEK JAIN) JUDGE maintain status quo over the land in terms of order Annexures P/16 and P/2. 6. With the aforesaid, this petition stands disposed of. rj 3 JYOTISHI Signing time: 12/1/2023 6:40:24 PM
