The appellants herein were the defendants in the suit. The suit was<br \/>\nfiled by the respondent herein before the trial court, seeking relief of<br \/>\npermanent injunction, mandatory injunction and other consequential relief<br \/>\nagainst the appellants herein.  The suit was decreed by the trial court by<br \/>\njudgment and decree dated 13.10.1998.  Aggreived by the judgment , the<br \/>\nappellants herein preferred  appeal before the II Additional District Court,<br \/>\nTirunelveli in A.S.No.196 of 1998. The appellate court by its judgment and<br \/>\ndecree, dated 30.11.1999, confirmed the judgment passed by the trial court and<br \/>\ndismissed the appeal.  Aggrieved by the same, the present Second Appeal has been<br \/>\npreferred, by the appellants who were defendants in the suit.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t3.  This Court considering the grounds raised by the appellants has framed<br \/>\nthe following Substantial questions of law:\n<\/p>\n<p>\t&#8220;1.  Whether the judgment and decree of Courts below are legally<br \/>\nsustainable inasmuch as they have found that the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is execlusive wall of<br \/>\nthe respondents, ignoring the physical features of the wall which will clearly<br \/>\nestablish the wall is common wall?\n<\/p>\n<p>\t2.  Whether the judgment and Appellae Court is legally sustainable<br \/>\ninasmuch as it has improperly rejected the Application I.A.No.80 of 1989 filed<br \/>\nto receive additonal documentary evidence to show the BC wall is common wall?&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\t4. Mr.K.Srinivasan, the learned counsel appearing for the appellants<br \/>\nargued that the disputed &#8220;BC&#8221; north-south wall described by the Advocate<br \/>\nCommissioner in his Report and Plan marked as Ex.C1 and C2 is a common wall<br \/>\nbelongs to the appellants and the respondent, however, the courts below without<br \/>\nconsidering the physical features  held that it is an exclusive wall belongs to<br \/>\nthe respondent herein, against law. The learned counsel further submitted that<br \/>\nthere is no supporting document on the side of the respondent\/plaintiff to show<br \/>\nthat the said wall exclusively belongs to the respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t5. Per contra, Mr.S.Meenakshisundaram, learned counsel appearing for the<br \/>\nrespondent\/plaintiff submitted that the property in dispute is only &#8220;BC&#8221; north-<br \/>\nsouth wall which  is nothing to do with the  appellants&#8217; property, and the same<br \/>\nhad been put up only by the predecessors in title to the respondent&#8217;s property.<br \/>\nOn the eastern side of the said property and further east of the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall<br \/>\nappellants\/defendants have put up &#8220;KJ&#8221; construction in the common pathway by way<br \/>\nof encroachment, that has to be demolished by the order of Mandatory<br \/>\nInjunction..  According to the learned counsel appearing for the respondent,<br \/>\nappellants claiming &#8220;BC&#8221; portion, as a common wall is not legally sustainable.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t6. It is an admitted fact that the appellants&#8217; property is not situated on<br \/>\nthe eastern side of the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall and their property is only on the southern<br \/>\nside of the common  pathway, which is described as &#8220;BCHL&#8221; in the sketch-Ex.C2<br \/>\nprepared  by the Advocate Commissioner.  Beyond the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall, &#8220;CD&#8221; wall portion<br \/>\nis available on the south.  Only on the east of &#8220;CD&#8221; wall portion, the<br \/>\nappellants&#8217; property is situated.  The appellants&#8217; have admitted that they have<br \/>\nno right in the &#8220;AB&#8221; portion of the wall.  It is not in dispute that &#8220;ABCD&#8221; is a<br \/>\ncontinuous north-south wall on the eastern side of the respondent&#8217;s property,<br \/>\nout of which, &#8220;AB&#8221; portion of the wall is on the extreme north.  &#8220;BC&#8221; portion is<br \/>\nits continuation on the south, &#8220;CD&#8221; portion is further continuation of the said<br \/>\nwall on the south.  Only on the eastern side of the &#8220;CD&#8221; portion of the wall,<br \/>\nappellants&#8217; house property is situated.  Immediately on the east of &#8220;BC&#8221; wall<br \/>\nportion, common pathway has been shown and not the appellants&#8217; property.<br \/>\nSimilarly, on the east of &#8220;AB&#8221; portion, some other house is shown, which is not<br \/>\nthe appellants&#8217; property.  From the sketch-Ex.C2, it is clear that &#8220;BC&#8221; wall,<br \/>\nthe property in dispute in the suit, is only a part of the respondent&#8217;s property<br \/>\non the east of his property.  However, the said &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is no way abetting the<br \/>\nappellants&#8217;property to claim it as a common wall by the appellants.  As the &#8220;BC&#8221;<br \/>\nwall is not even a boundary to the appellants&#8217; property and the same is away<br \/>\nfrom their property, they cannot claim that a said wall is the common wall of<br \/>\nthe appellants and respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t7. Mr.K.Srinivasan, the learned counsel appearing for the appellants<br \/>\nsubmitted that the burden of proof lies on the respondent, since, he was the<br \/>\nplaintiff in the suit. It is not in dispute that the respondent who was<br \/>\nplaintiff in the suit and sought the relief of permanent injunction, mandatory<br \/>\ninjunction and other consequential relief should prove his case.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t8. In support of his contention, the respondent\/plaintiff has marked 10<br \/>\nexhibits, apart from examining himself as P.W.1. Two other witnesses have also<br \/>\nbeen examined on the side of the respondent\/plaintiff.   Ex.A1 is the certified<br \/>\ncopy of the sale deed executed by one Sabapathy Pillai in favour of Sankaran<br \/>\nPillai, father of the respondent.  According to the learned counsel appearing<br \/>\nfor the respondent, the first item of plaint schedule property was purchased by<br \/>\nhis father in the year 1943 under the original of Ex.A1 and he died in the year<br \/>\n1981, leaving behind the respondent, his sole legal heir. It is also not in<br \/>\ndispute that the appellants property was originally belonged to one<br \/>\nEaswaramoorthy Pillai, husband of the first appellant and father of other<br \/>\nappellants.  After the demise of the said Easwaramoorthy Pillai, the appellants<br \/>\nowned the said property by way of inhertance. The respondent who was examined as<br \/>\nP.W.1 has deposed that &#8220;BC&#8221; wall was being maintained by the respondent&#8217;s father<br \/>\nand subsequently by the respondent, since 1944 after the purchase of the<br \/>\nproperty and that the appellants have no right in the said property.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t9. It is not in dispute that as per the Commissioner&#8217;s Report and  sketch-<br \/>\nEx.C1 and Ex.C2, the disputed &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is not abetting the appellants&#8217;<br \/>\nproperty.  In fact, as per the sketch-Ex.C2, the said wall is beyond the<br \/>\nappellants property.  Immediately on the east of &#8220;BC&#8221; portion, only common<br \/>\npathway is available.  It is also admitted by both parties that the appellants,<br \/>\nrespondent and others have right in that common pathway, which is immediately on<br \/>\nthe north of the appellants&#8217; property and east of &#8220;BC&#8221; wall.  Only on the west<br \/>\nof the common pathway, &#8220;BC&#8221; Wall  is available which is on the north of the<br \/>\nappellants&#8217; property and as found by the court below, the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is not even<br \/>\na boundary of the appellants&#8217; property.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t10. The Learned counsel appearing for the appellants submitted that there<br \/>\nis no specific recital in Ex.A1, A3 and A4-Sale deeds to show that the said wall<br \/>\nis an  exclusive wall belongs to the respondent. It is clear from the<br \/>\nCommissioner&#8217;s Sketch\/Ex.C2 that the &#8220;ABCD&#8221; wall is on the eastern side of the<br \/>\nrespondent&#8217;s property,however, the disputed property, namely &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the<br \/>\nwall is not abetting the appellants&#8217; property.  In other words, so far as the<br \/>\n&#8220;BC&#8221; Portion of the wall is concerned, appellants cannot be neighbours to the<br \/>\nrespondent, only for the&#8221;CD&#8221; portion of the wall, the appellants are neighbours<br \/>\nto the respondent, on the east and hence they have no locus-standi to claim the<br \/>\n&#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the wall as their common wall.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t 11. So far as the &#8220;CD&#8221; portion of the wall is concerned, it is<br \/>\nimmediately on the west of the appellants property however with regard to &#8220;CD&#8221;<br \/>\nportion, there is no dispute to be adjudicated in this appeal. Hence in this<br \/>\nSecond Appeal, the Court need not go into the question, whether the &#8220;CD&#8221; portion<br \/>\nof the wall is a common wall of the appellants and the respondent or exclusive<br \/>\nwall of the respondent,as the same is not a decidable issue in the Second<br \/>\nAppeal.  So far as the &#8220;BC&#8221; portion is concerned,  it is nothing to do with the<br \/>\nappellants property.  It is only on the east of the respondent&#8217;s house-property<br \/>\nand the appellants&#8217; property is admitted not abetting the &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the<br \/>\nwall, and hence,the same cannot be the common wall of the appellants, as claimed<br \/>\nby them.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t12.  The learned counsel for the appellants submitted that the respondent<br \/>\nis not entitled to the relief of permanent injunction or mandatory injunction to<br \/>\ndemolish the &#8220;KJ&#8221; construction put up by the appellants, in the alleged common<br \/>\npathway without a prayer seeking declaration.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t13.  In general, when the relief sought for is  mandatory injunction for<br \/>\ndemolition, seeking relief of  declaration of title or specific right in the<br \/>\nimmovable property, is a pre-requisite.  When the title to a property or the<br \/>\nrights claimed is in dispute, without establishing the specific legal right or<br \/>\ntitle to the property, no one can claim prohibitory injunction or mandatory<br \/>\ninjunction aginst the other.  However, when the title  or the specific right for<br \/>\nseeking the relief is admitted bythe other side or the same is not in dispute,<br \/>\none can claim mandatory injunction, even  without a prayer for declaration,<br \/>\nsince admission needs no proof.  A person who has established his legal<br \/>\npossession is entitled to the relief  of  permanent injunction against any other<br \/>\nperson, except the true owner of the property.  It is a settled proposition of<br \/>\nlaw that a tenant who is in legal possession of a property can seek prohibitory<br \/>\ninjunction even against his landlord, not to evict him except under due process<br \/>\nof law.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t14.  In the instant case, so far as the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is concerned, the<br \/>\nappellants  have no right to claim the same as a common wall, as their property<br \/>\nis admittedly not abetting the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall.  The said &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is admittedly<br \/>\npart and parcel of the respondents property, on the east, but away from the<br \/>\nappellants&#8217; property.  Only on the east of the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall, there is a common<br \/>\npathway. Therefore, the appellants who are not neighbours to the respondent at<br \/>\nthe said &#8220;BC&#8221; wall, are strangers to the &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the wall and hence they<br \/>\nhave no locus standi to dispute the claim of the respondent, who is admittedly<br \/>\nin possession and enjoyment of the said wall. Therefore, merely because there is<br \/>\nno prayer for declaration of title, it cannot be decided that the<br \/>\nrespondent\/plaintiff was not entitled to prohibitory injunction against the<br \/>\nappellants who are strangers to the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t15.  The evidence available on record clearly shows that the &#8220;KJ&#8221; wall<br \/>\nportion was put up, in the common  pathway, immediately on the east of &#8220;BC&#8221; wall<br \/>\nby the appellants. Even in the evidence, the appellants have admitted that<br \/>\nimmediately on the east of the &#8220;BC&#8221;wall, there is a common pathway which is on<br \/>\nthe north of the appellants property and in the Commissioner&#8217;s Sketch, the same<br \/>\nhas been described as &#8220;BCHL&#8221;.  It is an admitted fact by both the parties to the<br \/>\nappeal that the aforesaid &#8220;BCHL&#8221; wall is a common pathway to the appellants,<br \/>\nrespondent and others.  In such circumstances, the appellants have no right to<br \/>\nput up &#8220;KJ&#8221; construction in the common pathway. As it has been admitted that<br \/>\n&#8220;BCHL&#8221; portion is a common pathway, the appellants have no right to putup &#8220;KJ&#8221;<br \/>\nwall in the common pathway.  When there is an encroachment or illegal<br \/>\nconstruction, based on the admitted fact, the respondent\/plaintiff is entitled<br \/>\nto seek mandatory injunction to remove the illegal construction made in the<br \/>\ncommon pathway, even without a declaratory relief.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t16. As per Latin Maxim &#8220;Ubi jus ibi idem remedium&#8221; when there is a right<br \/>\nthere should be a  remedy.  In this case, admittedly the &#8220;BCHL&#8221; is a common<br \/>\npathway and the respondent is also entitled to use the pathway and therefore<br \/>\nwhen there is encroachment and illegal construction, the respondent\/plaintiff is<br \/>\nentitled to  seek mandatory injunction to remove the illegal construction,<br \/>\nwithout a declaratory prayer  since there is admission by the other side, that<br \/>\nit is a common pathway for both parties. Therefore, I could find no error in the<br \/>\nconcurrent judgments  of the courts below in granting the relief as prayed for<br \/>\nand accordingly, I answer the first substantial question of law against the<br \/>\nappellants and in favour of the respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t17.  So far as the Second Substantial question of law is concerned,<br \/>\nlearned counsel for the appellants submitted that an interlocutory application<br \/>\nin I.A.No.80 of 1999 was filed by the appellants to receive additional<br \/>\ndocumentary evidence to show that the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall is a common wall,  however, that<br \/>\nwas unreasonably dismissed  by the court below and therefore according to  the<br \/>\nappellants, the judgment rendered by the appellate court, is not legally<br \/>\nsustainable.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t18. It is seen from the impugned judgment that I.A.No.80 of 1989 had been<br \/>\nfiled under Order 41 Rule 27 r\/w Section 151 of Civil Procedure Code to receive<br \/>\na copy of the sale deed dated 16.07.1935 as additional document. As per  the<br \/>\ncopy of the document, one Sabapathy Pillai, vendor of the respondent&#8217;s father<br \/>\nhad purchased the property in the year 1935, however the said document is no way<br \/>\nsupporting  the case of the appellants to show that it was a common wall of the<br \/>\nappellants. The Learned counsel for the respondent has not disputed the fact<br \/>\nthat the respondent&#8217;s father Sankaran Pillai purchased the property under the<br \/>\noriginal of Ex.A1, dated 12.02.1943 from the said Sabapathy Pillai.  The said<br \/>\nSabapathy Pillai had purchased the property on 16.07.1935 under the original of<br \/>\nthe said unmarked document.  The first appellate court has given its finding<br \/>\nthat the aforesaid unmarked document is nothing to do with the claim of the<br \/>\nappellants herein and dismissed the application filed in I.A.No.80 of 1989.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t19. As per the Commissioner&#8217;s plan Ex.C2, it is clear that &#8220;ABCD&#8221; wall is<br \/>\non the east of the respondent&#8217;s property.  The second appellant who was examined<br \/>\nas D.W.1 has categorically admitted that the appellants  herein have no right in<br \/>\nthe &#8220;AB&#8221; portion of the wall, &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the wall which is a continuation<br \/>\nof the &#8220;AB&#8221; wall, immediately on the south.  Admittedly, the appellants house<br \/>\nproperty is not abetting neither the &#8220;AB&#8221; portion nor the &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the<br \/>\nwall.  Therefore, the appellants cannot make any claim in the &#8220;BC&#8221; portion of<br \/>\nthe wall, based on the unmarked document. The appellants have admitted that &#8220;AB&#8221;<br \/>\nportion of the wall is not their common wall,hence, the claim of the appellants<br \/>\nin respect of &#8220;BC&#8221; wall cannot be justified. Like&#8221;AB&#8221; portion wall, the disputed<br \/>\n&#8220;BC&#8221; portion of the wall is also not abetting the appellants&#8217; property. The sale<br \/>\ndeed, dated 16.07.1935,relating to Sabapathy Pillai, is only a parent document<br \/>\nto the respondent&#8217;s property and hence the said  document is nothing to do with<br \/>\nthe claim of the appellants in respect of the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall.  Had the document dated<br \/>\n16.07.1935 been marked,  it could not have imporved the case of the appellants,<br \/>\nsince the appellants property was not even a boundary of the &#8220;BC&#8221; wall, to claim<br \/>\nthe  same as their commlon wall. Hence  the non-marking of the document by the<br \/>\ncourt below and the dismissal of the interlocutory application, in I.A.No.80 of<br \/>\n1999, by the first appellate court do not cause any prejudice to the appellants<br \/>\nand therefore, I answer the second substantial question of law  also against the<br \/>\nappellants and in favour of the respondent,  holding that the judgment and<br \/>\ndecreed passed by the court below is based on evidence and hence the impugned<br \/>\njudgment and decree are legally sustainable.\n<\/p>\n<p>\t20. In the result, confirming the impugned judgment and decree of the<br \/>\ncourt below, the Second Appeal is dismissed.  However, for the execution of the<br \/>\nmandatory injunction, one month time is granted from the date of this judgment.<br \/>\nThere will be no order as to costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>vsn<\/p>\n<p>To<\/p>\n<p>1.
