            The writ petition is filed seeking the following<\/p>\n
reliefs.\n<\/p>\n
            i)   To set aside Ext.P10 order dated 13\/11\/2009<\/p>\n
and dismiss I.A No.1515\/2009 in O.S No.211\/2009 on the<\/p>\n
files of the Munsiff Court, Chengannur.\n<\/p>\n
            ii) To issue such other appropriate writ order or<\/p>\n
direction which this Hon’ble Court may deem just and fit<\/p>\n
under the circumstances of the case.\n<\/p>\n
            2. Petitioner is the plaintiff in O.S No.211 of 2009<\/p>\n
on the file of the Munsiff Court, Chengannur.                    Suit is for<\/p>\n
perpetual prohibitory injunction, and petitioner is the<\/p>\n
plaintiff. First respondent is the additional 5th defendant and<\/p>\n
other respondents, defendants 1 to 4 in the suit. In the suit,<\/p>\n
petitioner\/plaintiff     sought      for    a    perpetual      prohibitory<\/p>\n
injunction to restrain the defendants from interfering with<\/p>\n
his possession and tampering with the boundaries of the<\/p>\n
plaint property.       The local authority, the first respondent<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009        Page numbers<\/p>\n
herein, moved an application for its impleadment and that<\/p>\n
being allowed, it was impleaded as additional 5th defendant<\/p>\n
in the suit. An application for interim injunction as identical<\/p>\n
to the main relief canvassed in the suit after hearing both<\/p>\n
sides was dismissed by the learned Munsiff vide Ext.P7<\/p>\n
order.     The facts presented in the case disclose that<\/p>\n
previously the plaintiff had filed another suit against the 5th<\/p>\n
respondent and another seeking a perpetual prohibitory<\/p>\n
injunction identical to the reliefs sought in the present suit,<\/p>\n
pending suit some compromise terms were arrived between<\/p>\n
plaintiff and the local authority in the matter of putting up of<\/p>\n
the boundary wall separating his property from the adjacent<\/p>\n
Boys High School compound.               Retracting from the<\/p>\n
agreement so arrived, it is stated, the plaintiff withdrew the<\/p>\n
earlier suit.   The learned counsel for the first respondent<\/p>\n
would state that the present suit was filed during the<\/p>\n
pendency of the earlier suit, but, without impleading the<\/p>\n
local authority as one among the defendants canvassing the<\/p>\n
same relief in the previous suit.       After dismissal of the<\/p>\n
interlocutory application moved by the plaintiff vide Ext.P7<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009       Page numbers<\/p>\n
order, the first respondent\/additional 5th defendant moved<\/p>\n
an application for interim mandatory injunction for carrying<\/p>\n
out the measurement of the plaint property and fixation of<\/p>\n
the survey stone on its boundary with the assistance of the<\/p>\n
survey officials. Ext.P8 is the copy of that application. That<\/p>\n
application was objected to by the plaintiff . Ext.P8(a) is the<\/p>\n
copy of the objections. The learned Munsiff after hearing the<\/p>\n
counsel on both sides allowed Ext.P8 application vide<\/p>\n
Ext.P10 order.     Propriety and correctness of that order is<\/p>\n
challenged in the writ      petition invoking the supervisory<\/p>\n
jurisdiction vested with this court under Article 227 of the<\/p>\n
Constitution of India.\n<\/p>\n
            3. I heard the counsel on both sides. Perusing<\/p>\n
Ext.P10 order, it is seen, the court has allowed the interim<\/p>\n
mandatory      injunction  sought   for    by    the  additional<\/p>\n
5th defendant for measuring out the plaint property, fixing its<\/p>\n
boundaries and installing survey stones considering what<\/p>\n
transpired earlier in the previous suit. It is also seen that the<\/p>\n
dismissal of the interlocutory application for injunction<\/p>\n
moved by the plaintiff also weighed with the court in<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009      Page numbers<\/p>\n
concluding that additional 5th respondent is entitled to the<\/p>\n
interim mandatory injunction applied for. I am afraid the<\/p>\n
reasons taken by the court for the grant of interim<\/p>\n
mandatory injunction are not proper and correct.      There is<\/p>\n
no prohibition against granting an interim mandatory<\/p>\n
injunction by the court.     However, the court must be<\/p>\n
satisfied that the matter is emergent and its immediate<\/p>\n
assistance is required if the injunction is of a mandatory<\/p>\n
character. A mandatory injunction is an order compelling<\/p>\n
the opposite party to restore things to the condition in which<\/p>\n
they were when the petitioner’s complaint was made. It is<\/p>\n
granted only when the court is satisfied that injury is<\/p>\n
immediate and pressing and irreparable, and clearly<\/p>\n
established by the materials placed that no other equitable<\/p>\n
remedy is available to undo the mischief which is sought to<\/p>\n
be prevented.       On a mere asking for whatever be the<\/p>\n
contumacious conduct of the       opposite party the court<\/p>\n
cannot pass an order of interim mandatory injunction.<\/p>\n
Unless the essential requirements for sanctioning such an<\/p>\n
order is made out by the facts and circumstances presented<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009         Page numbers<\/p>\n
no such injunction can be ordered. What is noticed in the<\/p>\n
present case is that on dismissal of the interlocutory<\/p>\n
application moved by the plaintiff, whatever be the reasons<\/p>\n
thereof, in his suit for injunction on a request made by local<\/p>\n
authority the court has passed Ext.P10 order for fixation of<\/p>\n
the boundaries separating the plaintiff’s property with a<\/p>\n
nearby high school compound and fixing of survey stones<\/p>\n
demarcating the boundaries of the           two properties, by<\/p>\n
issuing an order in mandatory form to the fourth defendant,<\/p>\n
namely, Thahsildar, Chengannur.         In effect the additional<\/p>\n
fifth defendant, local authority, by filing Ext.P8 application<\/p>\n
sought for an order in the form of interim mandatory<\/p>\n
injunction as against a co-defendant, the fourth defendant,<\/p>\n
to measure out the two properties, fixing boundaries and<\/p>\n
then planting of survey stones on the boundaries. Strangely<\/p>\n
enough, no material had been placed before the court as to<\/p>\n
particulars of the property covered by the high school<\/p>\n
compound and no relief claimed even by way of counter<\/p>\n
claim in a written statement for fixation of boundaries of<\/p>\n
that compound with that the adjacent property belonging to<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009       Page numbers<\/p>\n
the plaintiff, leave alone fixing of the survey stones on<\/p>\n
boundaries of the properties. Ext.P10 order passed by the<\/p>\n
court below on the basis of Ext.P8 application which is in the<\/p>\n
nature of the mandatory injunction against a co-defendant<\/p>\n
compelling him to perform certain acts that too in respect of<\/p>\n
fixing of the boundaries of two properties in respect of one<\/p>\n
of which no material was placed before the court, without<\/p>\n
any relief thereof being canvassed in the suit          by the<\/p>\n
defendant by way of counter claim in its written statement,<\/p>\n
that too in the suit for perpetual prohibitory injunction filed<\/p>\n
by the plaintiff in respect of plaint property alone as against<\/p>\n
the defendants, is patently erroneous and unsustainable in<\/p>\n
law.\n<\/p>\n
            4.   Determination of the question relating to<\/p>\n
interim injunction which require the presentation of a prima<\/p>\n
facie case for such discretionary relief, is based on<\/p>\n
appreciation     of   the materials   tendered    without  any<\/p>\n
adjudication on the disputed questions presented in the<\/p>\n
case. View taken on such application is open to modification<\/p>\n
once evidence is let in the case. Similarly what transpired in<\/p>\n
W.P.(C).No.34032 OF 2009        Page numbers<\/p>\n
a previous suit may be relevant in considering whether the<\/p>\n
discretionary relief of interim injunction has to be granted or<\/p>\n
not. But a decree of injunction in a suit stands on a different<\/p>\n
footing, the legal right of the plaintiff to get that relief, as<\/p>\n
envisaged under Section 38 of the Specific Relief Act. So<\/p>\n
much so, the interim mandatory injunction given to the<\/p>\n
additional 5th defendant vide Ext.P10 order for the reasons<\/p>\n
adverted to by the learned Munsiff cannot be sustained.<\/p>\n
Ext.P10 order is set aside and Ext.P8 application shall stand<\/p>\n
dismissed. However I make it clear, setting aside of Ext.P10<\/p>\n
order will not stand in the way of the additional 5th<\/p>\n
defendant in seeking appropriate relief in the suit setting<\/p>\n
forth a counter claim, provided time limit for delivering its<\/p>\n
defence has not been over, subject to the procedure covered<\/p>\n
by Order 8 Rule 6A of the Code of Civil Procedure, if so<\/p>\n
advised. Writ petition is closed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
