As the connected appeal has been admitted for hearing by order dated 27.03.2026 on substantial question of law as framed therein, the Court is of the considered opinion that in the event the decree is executed, it may prejudice the applicant. Accordingly, the execution of the judgment and decree dated 25.11.2025, passed by the learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), Sonitpur, Tezpur in TA No. 13/2024 is stayed. 4. However, this order would not stand in the way of the declaration given by the learned first appellate Court that the plaintiffs are in possession of the suit land as well as the permanent injunction restraining the defendant no.5 (appellant in RSA 23/2026), from entering into and disturbing the possession of the suit land and house. 5. In view of the above, this interlocutory application stands disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
