THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION No.18635 of 2009 DATED:15.09.2009 Between: Jahan Parwarunnisa Begum, And others. ..... PETITIONERS And The Commissioner of Police, Basheerbagh, Hyderabad, And others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA WRIT PETITION No.18635 of 2009 ORDER: In the light of the disputes between the petitioners and others, the petitioners herein filed O.S.No.2877 of 2009, and the learned V Junior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad, by his order dated 16.06.2009 in I.A.No.475 of 2009 granted ad interim injunction. Thereafter, on an application filed by the petitioners, being I.A.No.502 of 2009, the very same Court passed an order on 21.07.2009 providing Police aid for implementation of the order dated 16.06.2009 in I.A.No.475 of 2009. Despite the same, as the Police have not provided the required protection, the petitioners approached this Court and filed the present writ petition for issuance of mandamus declaring the action of the respondents herein in not giving Police aid to implement the order of injunction granted in I.A.No.475 of 2009 dated 16.06.2009 as illegal and arbitrary. 2. On instructions, it is contended by the learned Government Pleader that the Police are prepared to provide required Police protection, and in fact, they asked the petitioners to produce the relevant orders passed by the Court, and in the meanwhile, apprehending that Police are not providing Police aid, the petitioners approached this Court and filed the Writ Petition. 3. This Court as early as in the year 1982 while dealing with an issue similar to the one involved in this case held that the High Court has jurisdiction to issue writ or direction to the Police within the State to enforce the orders passed by the competent civil Courts. It may be relevant to extract paragraph 7 of the judgment reported in SATYANARAYANA v. STATION HOUSE OFFICER, P.S.SANTHOSHNAGAR[1], which reads as under: I n Satyanarayan v. Mallikarjun (AIR 1960 SC 137) the Supreme Court reiterated this principle and went a step further that for doing justice between the parties, the High Court has absolute jurisdiction to issue such directions and orders as it may deem fit to do justice between the parties and enforce the law of the land. The only limitations on the wide powers conferred on the High Court and exercisable by it in the matter of issuing writs are (1) that the power is to be exercised throughout the territories in relation to which it exercises jurisdiction and (2) that the person or authority to whom the writ is issued, is within the territories over which the respective High Courts exercise jurisdiction. None of these limitations come in the way of the High Court issuing appropriate direction to further secure the right determined and recognized by the civil Court. The power which a civil court has under Section 151 C.P.C, the High Court has in much larger measure under Article 226 of the Constitution. We have, therefore, no hesitation in concluding that this Court 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 in a civil revision petition and maintain the rule of law. The police authorities are therefore bound to give all assistance to the appellant to enforce and see that the orders of this court as confirmed in C.R.P.No.3258/81 are 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. This order will be subject only to the final orders of the civil Court in O.S.No.3770/80. 4. Accordingly, this Writ Petition is allowed, and the respondents are hereby directed to provide the required Police aid to enforce the orders of injunction granted in I.A.No.475 of 2009 dated 16.06.2009. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________________ (T.GOPALA KRISHNA, J) 15th September, 2009 Note: Issue C.C. in two days. B/o. vs [1] AIR 1982 AP 394
