IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.3206 of 2007 Date of decision: February 27, 2008. Parminder Singh & Ors. ...Petitioner(s) v. Smt. Sharanjit Kaur ...Respondent(s) CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest. Present: Shri Manvinder Singh Sidhu, Advocate for the petitioners. Shri Gurcharan Dass, Advocate for the respondent. ORDER Surya Kant, J. - This Revision Petition is at the instance of minor children of deceased Randhir Singh, filed through their grand-mother, seeking ad-interim injunction against their own mother so as to restrain her from alienating the immovable properties, including the agricultural land, owned by their deceased father. The courts below declined ad-interim injunction to the petitioners primarily on the ground that they are in lawful custody of their natural guardian, i.e., the mother – respondent – defendant. Notice of motion was issued and in response thereto, Learned Counsel for the parties have been heard. It is the conceded position that the respondent – defendant, namely, the mother of the petitioners has already entered into an agreement to surrender lease rights (which were for 99 years) for a paltry sum of Rs.6 lacs even though the market value of the property, due to its location being within the Municipal limits of Ludhiana, is not less than Rs.40 lacs. There appears to be a prima-facie substance in the contention raised on behalf of the petitioners that their interest in the immovable properties of their deceased father is not likely to remain protected or safe in the hands of the respondent. No extra-ordinary compelling circumstances, which would have forced the respondent ought to alienate the above stated property, have been explained. It is obvious that if the lease rights are surrendered and/or other properties, if any, are also alienated, the same shall cause irreparable loss and injury to the petitioners. They being legal heirs of deceased Randhir Singh, the balance of convenience also lies in their favour. For the reasons afore-stated, this Revision Petition is allowed; the impugned orders are set aside and the respondent is restrained from transferring, alienating, selling and/or creating any charge over the immovable properties of her deceased husband (Randhir Singh) and/or the grand-mother of the petitioners, namely, Smt. Surjit Kaur. February 27, 2008. [ Surya Kant ] kadyan Judge
