2. 14.03.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner

and the State.

Learned counsel for the petitioner

submits that there is a bona fide land dispute going

on that whether the lands in question were public

lands or whether they belonged to cremation ground.

He submits that Title Suit No. 51 of 1993 is at the

verge of conclusion and judgment is awaited.

Therefore, the respondents may be restrained from

constructing any boundary wall over the lands in

question for short a duration awaiting the final

judgment.

Counsel for the State has invited

attention of the Court to Paragraph-5 of the

pleadings that injunction had been sought in the

Title suit as far back as 1994 and it appears that on

2.6.1994 the relief was declined as no order for

injunction were passed.

The petitioner had a remedy and he

availed it in the year 1994 and then abandoned it.

There is a civil suit pending. If the petitioner did not
2

take his prayer for injunction it to its logical

conclusion at the necessary time today the Court

finds it difficult to invoke its extraordinary

jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of

India in the facts of the case to pass any interim

orders of nature prayed for.

The writ application is dismissed.
