THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Writ Petition No.22735 of 2009 Dated: 30.10.2009 Between: Mohd. Hafeez Petitioner And The Super indent of Police, At Vikarabad, Ranga Reddy (District) And others. Respondents THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA Writ Petition No.22735 of 2009 ORDER: 1 Petitioner is the absolute owner and possessor of the dry land in an extent of Ac.5.00 in Sy.No.15/2 of Malkapur village, which was assigned to the petitioner by the then Mandal Revenue Officer as early as on 22.03.1997. However, as there is a threat of dispossession he approached the Junior Civil Judge, Tandur and filed O.S.No.82 of 2008 and he also filed an application seeking temporary injunction vide I.A.No.213 of 2008 along with the suit. The learned Junior Civil Judge was pleased to grant temporary injunction by his order dated 18.07.2008. Despite the said order of injunction as the official respondents are interfering with his peaceful possession, the petitioner filed another I.A.13 of 2009 before the very same court seeking police protection and the Court was pleased to order the said application and directed the official respondents to provide protection by its order dated 11.09.2009. In spite of the said order, providing police protection, as the official respondents are not implementing the said order and are not providing protection, the petitioner approached this court and filed the present Writ Petition. 2 Heard both sides. 3 When once there is an order providing police protection and the same is brought to the notice of the official respondents, the official respondents are duty bound to implement the said order and provide police protection. This Court in Satyanarayana Tiwari Vs. S.H.O. P.S. Santhoshnagar, Hyderabad[1] held: “It is impossible to envisage a situation where the High Court has confirmed the injunction order of the trial court is powerless to enforce its orders and be a silent spectator to its being violated with impunity and leave the parties to seek their remedy by way of contempt alone. By any interpretation of the provisions of Civil P.C, the power of the High Court under Art.226 of the Constitution, to enforce its own orders or the orders of the Civil court cannot be curtailed. The power which a civil Court has under Section 151 CPC the High Court has in much larger measure under Article 226 of the Constitution. The High Court therefore has ample jurisdiction to issue a writ or direction to all the authorities including the police within the State to enforce the orders of the civil court as confirmed by the High Court and maintain the rule of law. The police authorities in the instant case are bound to give all assistance to the appellant to enforce and see that the injunction order is implemented and any enquiry or report of any other authority, revenue or police cannot be put as an excuse for not rendering the required help to the appellant to maintain his possession.” 4 Accordingly, this Writ Petition is allowed and the official respondents are hereby directed to implement the said order passed by the learned Junior Civil Judge, Tandur in I.A.No.13 of 2009 dated 11.09.2009 and provide police protection to the petitioner. No order as to costs. ------------------- 29.10.2009 C.C. tomorrow B/o kvsn [1] AIR 1982 ANDHRA PRADESH, PAGE 394
