Civil Revision No. 1921 of 2006 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Misc. No. 22614-CII of 2008 and Civil Revision No. 1921 of 2006 Date of decision: 9th September, 2009 Major Singh and another .....Petitioners Versus Sahib Singh and another ....Respondents Before: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJIVE BHALLA Present: Mr. K.S.Sidhu, Advocate for the petitioners. Mr. K.S.Dadwal, Advocate with Mr. Rajesh Kumar, Advocate for the respondents. Rajive Bhalla, J. The petitioners challenge the order dated 11.03.2006, whereby, the trial court has directed the Halqa Kanungo, Raikot, to restore a water channel, allegedly demolished during the pendency of the suit. Counsel for the petitioners does not press the revision petition but prays that the order passed by the trial court be kept in abeyance, as restoration of the water course would damage the standing paddy crop. Counsel for the respondents has no objection to the aforementioned request. In view of the statement made by counsel for the petitioner, the revision petition is dismissed. However, the order dated 11.03.2006, passed by the Additional Civil Judge (Senior Civil Revision No. 1921 of 2006 2 Division), Jagraon, shall be kept in abeyance till 1.11.2009. It is ordered that the water course shall be restored after 1.11.2009 but definitely before 15.11.2009. It is made clear that restoration of the water course shall not confer any right upon the respondents except as an interim measure. While deciding the suit, the trial court shall not be influenced by findings recorded in its interim order. If it is ultimately found that no water course was in existence, the interim order shall not bar the trial court from ordering demolition of the temporary water course, which has been ordered to be excavated as a temporary measure. Counsel for the parties pray that a direction be issued to the trial court to decide the suit expeditiously by grant of two opportunities to the each party to lead their evidence. Ordered accordingly. The trial court shall make every endeavour to decide the suit within one year. [RAJIVE BHALLA] JUDGE 9th September, 2009 SKaushik
