2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Assistant Government Pleader. 3. Sri B.V.Durga Prasad, learned counsel for the petitioner, submits that despite there being orders by the competent Civil Court restraining the unofficial respondents from interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the property, they are interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the petitioner’s property. The petitioner submitted a representation dated 05.02.2026 to the Deputy Superintendent of Police, Satya Sai District/respondent No.3 requesting to provide police aid to the petitioner’s land. However, the said representation has not been considered by respondent No.3 in accordance with law, and hence, it is urged to allow the Writ Petition. 4. Sri P. Ajay Babu, learned Assistant Government Pleader, on written instructions, submits that though a competent Civil Court passed an order restraining the unofficial respondents from interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the petitioner over the plaint schedule property, there was no specific direction to the police to safeguard the petitioner’s property from the unlawful interference of the unofficial respondents. 4 Dr. YLR, J W.P.No.5001 of 2026 Dated 23.02.2026
5.
Considering the above submissions of the learned Assistant Government Pleader, this Writ Petition is disposed of directing the respondent Nos.2 to 5 to consider the representation submitted by the petitioner and dispose of the same in accordance with law. It is made clear that the petitioner is at liberty to file an appropriate application under Order XXXIX Rule 3A of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (for brevity ‘the CPC’) before the concerned Civil Court seeking appropriate action against the unofficial respondents for violating the ad-interim injunction granted by the learned Civil Judge. 6. In the result, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, Miscellaneous petitions, if any pending, shall stand closed. _________________________ DR. Y.
