CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Jitendra Nath Upadhyay, Advocate For the State : Mr. Devesh Krishna, SC (Mines)-III …...... 02 /03.07.2026: Heard the parties. 2. This Criminal Miscellaneous Petition has been filed under Section 528 of Bharatiya Nagarik Surakhsa Sanhita, 2023 for modification of para 8 of order dated 21.2.2024 passed in W.P. (Cr.) No. 592 of 2023. 3. W.P. (Cr.) No. 592 of 2023 was filed under Article 226 of the Constitution wherein a prayer was made for a direction upon respondent no.2 to clear the obstruction on the road/passage used by the petitioner and the villagers for more than 20 yrs. Petitioner is claiming easementry rights by virtue of an order of Executive Court. 4. During course of argument, it was brought to the notice that Title Suit No.31 of 2019 is pending between the parties. Since the suit was pending between the parties, this Court in paragraph-8 of the order dated 21.02.2024 ordered that the parties should await the final decision of the civil suit. It was further ordered that the decision in the civil suit will prevail over the orders which was passed by the Executive Courts. 5. Today, it has been brought to the notice of this Court by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the civil suit is still pending and has not yet been decided and it is being delayed at the instance of the opposite parties. 6. Considering the said submission, I am not inclined to recall and modify the observations made in paragraph 8 of the order dated 21.02.2024, but it is expected that the Title Suit No. 31 of 2019 be disposed of at the earliest by the court concerned, without granting any unnecessary adjournment to the parties. The court should make an endeavor to take up the suit on day to day basis. 7. Accordingly the instant petition stands disposed of. (ANANDA SEN, J.) 03.07.2026 Anjali/- Uploaded…./07/2026
