Respondent(s) JYOTI SHARMA Digitally signed by JYOTI SHARMA Date: 2026.01.08 10:16:24 +0530 2 For Appellant (s) : Mr. Yogesh Chandra, Advocate For State/ Respondent(s) No. 3 : Mr. Ritesh Giri, P.L. Hon’ble Shri Bibhu Datta Guru, Judge Order on Board 06/01/2026 Heard. 1. By the present appeal under Order 43 Rule 1 (u) of the CPC the appellant/ defendants are challenging the impugned judgment dated 31.10.2025 passed by the Second Additional District Judge, Baloda Bazar in Civil Appeal No. 42A/2025 (Satyanarayan & Anr. Vs. Smt. Bindiya Bai and Ors.) arising out of the judgment and decree dated 25.07.2025 passed by the learned Second Civil Judge Senior Division, Baloda Bazar in Civil suit No. 58A/2021 (Satyanarayan & Anr. Vs. Sukhbai (dead) through LRs Smt. Bindiya Bai and Ors.). For the sake of convenience the parties will be referred as per their status before the trial court. 2. The plaintiff preferred the suit for declaration and injunction in respect of the land bearing khasra No. 1210/2 measuring 0.243 hect. situated in mouza Barda P.H. No. 28 Tahsil Baloda Bazar pleading, inter alia, that the suit land was occupied by Rupau who is the father of the plaintiff No. 1 and husband of plaintiff No. 2. After death of Rupau the names of the plaintiffs were registered in respect of the suit land. When the plaintiff approached the revenue authority for form B1 they came to know that their names 3 were not entered in respect of the suit land. After due enquiry they came to know that the suit land has been registered in name of defendant Sukhbai. According to the plaintiffs, the suit land was registered in the name of defendant by hatching conspiracy. 3. The defendants submitted their written statement and denied the plaintiffs averments. They stated that the suit land was purchased from Nona Bai and Pillai Bai through a registered sale deed for sale consideration of Rs. 2,000/- by the maternal grandfather of the defendants and since then the suit land was in their possession. The defendants also stated that the said suit land was registered in the name of Dhanya and after death of Dhanya the same was recorded in the name of Nona Bai and Pilli Bai. After sale deed dated 04.05.1981 Baiju was occupant of the land and after his death the suit land was registered in the name of Sukh Bai and Jug Bai (Original defendant). According to the defendants proper court fees has not been paid by the plaintiffs and as such they are not entitled for any relief. 4. After hearing the parties and on consideration of the facts available on record and other materials the learned Trial court dismissed the suit. Against the said judgment and decree passed by the Trial Court the plaintiff preferred an appeal under Section 96 of the CPC before the learned First appellate Court. The learned First Appellate Court by the order impugned allowed the appeal filed by the plaintiff and remanded back the matter to the learned Trial Court for deciding the issue afresh. 4 5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the impugned orders. 6. From bare perusal of the impugned order passed by the learned First Appellate Court, it appears that the First Appellate Court has remanded back the suit to the trial Court observing that under what basis the seller of the property namely; Nona Bai and Pillai Bai have got possession of land bearing Khasra No. 1210/2 area 0.243 Hectares has not been examined by the trial Court. It is further reflected from the judgment of the trial Court that the partition took place on 10/01/1992 but to prove the said partition, no cogent evidence was placed and for the said reasons as the fact regarding how the seller Nona Bai and Pillai Bai came into possession and got title has not been examined by scrutinizing the evidence available on record. The learned First Appellate Court has rightly remanded back the matter for deciding the issue afresh to examine the aforesaid fact and directed the trial Court to pass appropriate orders in accordance with law. The order passed by the learned First Appellate Court is just and proper and the defendant failed to establish any illegality or irregularity in the order impugned. 7. In view of the above, the instant appeal being devoid of merit is liable to be and is hereby dismissed at the motion stage itself. Sd/- (Bibhu Datta Guru) JUDGE Jyoti
