Manmohan Singh Mathon and another ....Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA *** Present: Mr.Arun Palli, Sr. Advocate with Mr.Divanshu Jain, Advocate for the petitioners. None for the respondents. *** KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA (ORAL) Manmohan Singh Mathon respondent had filed Civil Suit No.360/11.10.2005 seeking declaration to the effect that he is in possession and enjoyment of the suit land measuring 25 Kanals 7 Marlas, details of which were given in head note of the plaint on basis of oral family settlement. A further prayer of permanent injunction restraining the defendants from dispossessing the plaintiff from the suit land was also sought. Additional Civil Judge (Sr. Division), Dasuya declined to grant ad-interim injunction in favour of the plaintiff on 21.4.2006. Aggrieved CR No.4735 of 2006 [2] against the same, respondent-plaintiff filed an appeal. In the appeal, Additional District Judge, Hoshiarpur ordered that status quo regarding possession of the land in dispute be maintained. It is apparent that the suit was instituted in the year 2005. Four years are going to elapse and the order of status quo since then has been maintained by the parties to the suit. In these circumstances, the parties to the suit are directed to maintain status quo till conclusion of the suit. However, taking into consideration the fact that suit is four years old, the trial Court is directed to decide the suit within one year from the date of receipt of copy of this order by affording three opportunities to both the parties to adduce their evidence. The present revision petition is disposed off. ( KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA ) August 31, 2009. JUDGE RC
