                                    Bengaluru.

has filed his written statement along with counter claim.

The plaintiff filed written statement to the counter claim of

Memo and withdrawn his suit. Now, only the counter claim

is remaining for consideration.
                               3
                                           O.S.No.5401/2015

2.   The relief claimed by the defendant in the counter

claim is the judgment and decree of perpetual injunction

restraining the plaintiff, his agents, henchmen, etc., from

interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of

the defendant on the written statement schedule property.


3.   The written statement schedule property is vacant site

bearing BDA No.428 in the layout formed by the Vyalikaval

House Building Co-operative Society Ltd., layout formed out

of Sy.No.34/2 situated at Nagavara Village, Kasaba Hobli,

18.59/2 meters or 60 + 61/2 feet and North to South 18.59

+ 18.44/2 meters or 61 + 60.5/2 feet totally 341.32 square

meters or 3675.37 square feet and bounded on the East by

Road, West by Site No.429, North by Road and South by

Private property.


4.   The brief facts averred in the written statement of the

defendant leading to the counter claim are that the written

statement schedule property is carved out of the land

bearing Sy.No.34/2 situated at Nagavara Village, Bengaluru
                                4
                                              O.S.No.5401/2015

North Taluk which was used for formation of layout by

Vyalikaval House Building Co-operative Society (hereinafter

called as "Society" in short) to its members. The Society

lawfully acquired the said land and it has been formed the

layout by obtaining approved Layout Plan from the

Bangalore Development Authority. The written statement

schedule property is one of the sites formed in Sy.No.34/2

of Nagavara Village. The vendor of the defendant purchased

the written statement schedule property from Vyalikaval

House    Building   Co-operative    Society    Ltd.,   through

registered Sale Deed dated 17.05.2004. After purchase of

the written statement schedule property, the defendant was

put in its physical possession. Thus, the defendant is in

peaceful possession of the written statement schedule

property. After purchase of the written statement schedule

property, the revenue records in respect of the written

statement schedule property were mutated to the name of

the defendant. He is paying tax to the concerned authorities

regularly in respect of the written statement schedule

property from the date of its purchase till today. In the year
                               5
                                            O.S.No.5401/2015

2011, the defendant proceeded to put up a shed in the

written statement schedule property by using solid cement

blocks, asbestos aluminum sheets for the purpose of

roofing. After completion of the said shed, the same was

provided with electricity connection. He dug a borewell in

the written statement schedule property in the year 2007.

The defendant took electricity connection to the said

borewell. After construction of the shed, he let out the same

to the tenants from 2010 to till its demolition. The

defendant was dispossessed consequent to the delivery

warrant issued in Ex.No.780/2013. The defendant filed

W.P.No.50828-836/2014 before the Hon'ble High Court of

Karnataka seeking an order to quash the issuance of the

said delivery warrant. After hearing the parties, the Hon'ble

High Court of Karnataka disposed of the Writ Petition vide

its order dated 16.12.2014 directing the defendant to file

application before the executing Court in accordance with

law. Accordingly, the defendant approached the executing

Court by filing the application under Order XXI Rule 97 of

the Code of Civil Procedure to permit the defendant to come
                                        6
                                                        O.S.No.5401/2015

on record as obstructor. The said application was contested

by the plaintiff. Vide order dated 31.03.2015, the City Civil

Court passed an order holding that the Execution Petition

filed by the plaintiff is not maintainable and directed the

plaintiff   to    handover       the   possession       of   the   written

statement        schedule    property        to   the   defendant.     On

09.06.2015, the defendant took the possession of the

written statement schedule property from the plaintiff by

executing the delivery warrant as per the order of the Court.

Thereafter, the defendant is in possession of the written

statement schedule property. He is in the process of

construction of the building in the written statement

schedule property and for which to put up temporary shed

and to obtain electricity connection. Thus, the defendant is

in peaceful possession and enjoyment of the written

statement schedule property. The plaintiff interfered to the

peaceful possession and enjoyment of the written statement

schedule     property       by   the       defendant.   Therefore,    the

defendant has filed this counter claim.
                                7
                                             O.S.No.5401/2015

5.   To the counter claim of the defendant, the plaintiff has

filed his written statement. His contentions are that the

defendant cannot file counter claim based on the same

cause of action. If he has any other cause of action, he is at

liberty to file a separate suit. The defendant has no right to

question the orders passed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court.

The questioning of the orders passed by the Hon'ble

Supreme Court will amounts to contempt of Court for

which, the defendant is liable to be prosecuted. The counter

claim of the defendant for perpetual injunction is unknown

to law. The alleged electricity connection to the premises is

standing in the name of the plaintiff and not in the name of

the defendant. The alleged building of the defendant is not

at all in existence. The plaintiff is the purchaser of this

property from its lawful owners by a Sale Deed i.e., acted

upon after the transfer of revenue entries to his name. The

layout where the alleged defendant's site is situated got

canceled by the Bangalore Development Authority. The

challenge of the same was allowed by the Hon'ble High

Court of Karnataka. But, it is stayed by the Hon'ble
                                         8
                                                          O.S.No.5401/2015

Supreme Court. Therefore, the defendant cannot contend

that the layout in which his alleged site is situated is a

legally formed layout. The Khatha of the alleged defendant's

site has been canceled by the concerned authorities

confirming the fact that the defendant is neither the owner

nor has any right or interest over the alleged site. The

alleged   site   owners          as   that   of   the     defendant   have

approached the Society for the refund of the money. The

defendant is also at liberty to claim the money from the

Society if at all he has paid any consideration. The

defendant     without       exclusive        cause   of    action   cannot

maintain the counter claim. Hence, prayed to dismiss the

counter claim.

the Court, making false claim regarding possession, cause of

action and concealing the judicial orders during the judicial

proceedings before this Court.

9. In support of I.A.No.XV, the defendant has filed his

affidavit stating that the plaintiff filed the suits in

O.S.No.4374/2015 and O.S.4292/2015 for permanent

the schedule property by misleading the Court. After the

matter was heard, this Court invoking Order XXI Rules 97 to

101 of the Code of Civil Procedure held that the defendant is

has illegally obtain the possession by suppression and

misguiding the Court. The Court passed an order directing to

11
O.S.No.5401/2015

property. Despite the same, the plaintiff has filed the present

suit for permanent injunction falsely asserting that he is in

possession of the suit schedule property. The plaintiff

intentionally suppressed the orders passed in Execution

Petition No.780/2013 and the earlier suits filed by him to

mislead the Court. The defendant in his written statement

and counter claim brought the said facts to the notice of this

Court and thereafter, the plaintiff filed Memo to withdraw the

suit with an intention to avoid the adverse findings of this

Court. The plaintiff by making false pleadings, filing false

affidavits, suppressing the material judicial orders,

fraudulently obtaining the order misleading the Court,

making false claim regarding possession, cause of action and

concealing the judicial orders during the judicial proceedings

before this Court has committed the offences punishable

under Sections 191 to 193, 196, 199, 200 and 209 of the

Indian Penal Code (Sections 227, 228, 230, 233, 246 and 247

of the Bharathiya Nyaya Samhita). Hence, the plaintiff is

19. The specific case of the defendant is that the written

statement schedule property is one of the sites formed by the

Society in Sy.No.34/2 of Nagawara Village, Kasaba Hobli,

Bengaluru North Taluk. The document contained Ex.P9 is the

Final Notification dated 21.02.1986 issued by the

Government of Karnataka for acquisition of the lands for

formation of the layout by the Society situated at Nagawara

Village. The land bearing Sy.No.34/2 was one of the subject

matters of the said acquisition. The said acquisition

proceedings were challenged before the Hon’ble High Court of

Karnataka and it went up to Hon’ble Supreme Court in Civil

Appeal No.2086-2087/2004 and other Civil Appeals. In the

said proceedings, out of the total extent of the land notified

for acquisition, the acquisition of 52 acre 17 guntas of land
26
O.S.No.5401/2015

were quashed. In the said extent of the land quashed, the

land bearing Sy.No.34/2 is not a subject matter. It is

forthcoming in the documents marked at Ex.P7. Though, the

plaintiff while filing the suit as claimed his title and

possession over the land bearing Sy.No.34/2 of Nagawara

Village measuring 1 acre 17 guntas, he has abandoned his

claim by withdrawing the suit and in the written statement

filed to the counter claim of the defendant, he has not made

any claim in respect of the said land.

20. It appears from the documentary evidences produced by

the defendant at Ex.D2 and Ex.D3 that on 07.05.2004, the

Society sold the written statement schedule property in

favour of K.Vikas and handed over is vacant possession to

him. It appears from the contents of Ex.D4 that pursuant to

the said sale, the Khatha of the written statement schedule

property was entered in the name of K.Vikas. It appears from

the contents of Ex.D5 and Ex.D52 that K.Vikas represented

by his GPA holder K.Vinay sold the written statement

schedule property in favour of the plaintiff through registered

Sale Deed dated 24.01.2006. It further appears from the
27
O.S.No.5401/2015

contents of Ex.D7 to Ex.D17 that pursuant to the Sale Deed

dated 24.01.2006, the Khatha of the suit schedule property

transferred to the name of the defendant and he has paid

property tax up to 2018-2019 in respect of the suit schedule

property. It further appears from the contents of Ex.D21 to

Ex.D31 that the defendant has obtained License and

Approved Building Plan to construct the house in the suit

schedule property and obtained electricity connection to the

building in the suit schedule property. These documentary

evidences produced by the defendant prima-facie proving his

lawful possession and enjoyment over the suit schedule

property.

21. It is admitted fact that the plaintiff filed Execution Case

No.780/2013 before this Court to issue delivery warrant in

respect of Sy.No.34/2 situated at Nagawara Village

measuring 1 acre 17 guntas based on the orders passed in

Civil Appeal No.930/2012 and its connected cased by the

Hon’ble Supreme Court. In the said case, the plaintiff

through the process of the Court took possession including

the written statement schedule property. Aggrieved by the
28
O.S.No.5401/2015

same, the defendant filed I.A.No.XIX under Order XXI Rule 97

of the Code of Civil Procedure to come on record as objector

No.24, I.A.No.XX under Section 151 of the Code of Civil

Procedure for recalling the delivery warrant and I.A.No.XXI

under Order XXI Rule 99 and 100 of the Code of Civil

Procedure to delivery back the possession of the written

statement schedule property. After hearing the both parties,

vide order dated 31.03.2015, the said Execution Petition was

dismissed as not maintainable since the plaintiff herein

wrongly filed the Execution Petition; obtained the delivery

warrant by suppressing facts; also obtained order to break

open lock with Police help and with that order, wrongly

dispossessed the defendant herein. The Court ordered the

plaintiff to handover the possession of the written statement

schedule property to the defendant herein. Ex.D34 is the

certified copy of the said Order. Challenging the said order,

the plaintiff filed C.R.P.No.218/2015 before the Hon’ble High

Court of Karnataka. The reason to say that the above facts

are the admitted facts, the plaintiff in the plaint as averred

that the possession of the plaintiff in the suit schedule
29
O.S.No.5401/2015

property was confirmed by the mahazar Report filed in

Execution No.780/2013 and the order passed in Execution

No.780/2013 is assailed in C.R.P.No.218/2015. It appears

from the contents of Ex.D33 that in pursuance to the delivery

warrant issued directing the decree holder to handover the

possession of the written statement schedule property to the

defendant, on 09.06.2015, the possession of the written

statement schedule property was handed over to the

defendant.

22. In the Judgments relied by the learned Counsel for the

defendant, the Judgments in the cases between Silver Line

Forum Pvt. Ltd., V/s Rajiv Trust, Bangalore Development

Authority V/s N.Nanjappa and another, Shamsher Singh and

another V/s LT. COL. Nahar Singh (D) through LR’s and

others, Jogendra Kaur V/s Kali Prasad, Ashand Devi V/s

Phulwasi Devi, Shoban Salim Thakur V/s Chitanya Arora

and others, Ramadevi V/s Rajeshwari, B.K.Gopala V/s

Nagarathnamma, Basappa V/s Sambireddy and Ranjith K.G

and others V/s Sheeba, Periyammal (Dead), through LR’s and

others V/s Rajamani and another, Brahmadeo Choudhary
30
O.S.No.5401/2015

V/s Rishikesh Prasad Jaiswal and Sriram Housing Finance

and Investment (India) Ltd., V/s Omesh Mishra Memorial

Charitable Trust, the law with regard to the adjudication of

the right under Order 21 Rule 97 to 102 of the Code of Civil

Procedure by executing Court and its consequences are laid

down. There is no dispute with regard to the above principles

of law. By adjudicating the right of the defendant in the

written statement schedule property, this Court directed the

plaintiff to hand over the vacant possession of the written

statement schedule property to the defendant and

inconsequence thereof, the possession of the written

statement schedule property was taken by the defendant

through the process of the Court. Therefore, as on the date of

filing of the suit, the defendant was in possession of the

written statement schedule property.

23. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case between Rame

Gowda (Dead) by LR’s V/s M.Varadappa Naidu (Dead) by LR’s

and another held that

“8. It is thus clear that so far as the Indian
law is concerned, the person in peaceful
31
O.S.No.5401/2015

possession is entitled to retain his possession
and in order to protect such protection, he may
even use reasonable force to keep out a
trespasser.”

24. It appears from the evidences produced by the

defendant both oral and documentary that the defendant was

in possession and enjoyment of the written statement

schedule property, he has dispossessed by the plaintiff and

later on 09.06.2015, the defendant took back the possession

of the written statement schedule property from the plaintiff

through the process of the Court.

25. I perused the oral evidences of DW1 deposed in his

cross-examination. DW1 in his cross-examination has

deposed that he is the member of the Society. Though, he has

not produced any documentary evidences to show that he is

the member of the Society, it is not demerit to his case.

Because, the suit schedule property was not allotted to him

by the Society. It was allotted to his vendor. Therefore, the

legality of the purchase of the suit schedule property by the

defendant cannot be questioned by the plaintiff.
32

O.S.No.5401/2015

26. On perusal of the entire cross-examination of DW1, it

appears that no effective cross-examination is made with

regard to Ex.D2 to Ex.D4, Ex.D6 to Ex.D34 and Ex.D52 to

disbelieve the documents produced by the defendant.

Therefore, from the above documentary evidences, the

defendant has proved his lawful possession over the written

statement schedule property.

27. During the evidences of the defendant, the certified

copies of the pleadings and order sheets in respect of the

suits in O.S.No.4297/2015, O.S.No.4374/2015,

O.S.No.3256/2019, O.S.No.5331/2014, the depositions of

the plaintiff herein in O.S.No.3256/2019, the deposition of

the defendant herein in O.S.No.4374/2015, the judgments

and decrees in O.S.No.1850/2014, O.S.No.1852/2014,

O.S.No.4374/2015 and O.S.No.4392/2015 are produced by

the defendant. It appears from the said documents that the

land bearing Sy.No.34/2 of Nagawara Village was the subject

matter of the suits filed by the plaintiff herein. No documents

are produced in respect of the final result of the suits in

O.S.No.4297/2015, O.S.No.3256/2019, O.S.No.5331/2014
33
O.S.No.5401/2015

and O.S.No.3256/2019. In O.S.No.1850/2014 and

O.S.No.1852/2014, the written statement schedule property

was not the subject matter of the suit.

28. During Cross-examination of DW1, the certified copies

of the Judgments and Decree in O.S.No.4374/2015 and

O.S.No.4297/2015 are got marked on admission through

confrontation on behalf of the plaintiff. DW1 during his cross-

examination has admitted that the counter claim made by

him were dismissed under the said Judgments and Decree. It

appears from the contents of Ex.P.16 and 17 that the written

statement schedule property herein was also the subject

matters of the above suit in the counter claims of the

defendant herein and the said counter claims were dismissed

on the ground that the title of the defendant herein is under

cloud; therefore, the suit for bare injunction is not

maintainable and the defendant herein has not proved the

cause of action for claiming the relief of counter claim. DW1

in his cross-examination has admitted that he has not filed

any appeals challenging the judgment and decree passed in

O.S.No.4374/2015 and O.S.No.4297/2015. Therefore, the
34
O.S.No.5401/2015

findings in the above suits are reached its finality. It is a

conclusive proof of the fact in issue involved in the said suits

and the present suit for the reason that the subject matters

of the said counter claim and the present suit counter claim

are one and the same; the defendant herein has claimed the

counter claim against the plaintiff herein based on the

similar pleadings and the defendant herein has also relied the

very same documentary evidences in the said suits.

29. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case between

Anathulla Sudhakar V/s S.P.Buchi Reddy (Dead) by LRs. and

other held that where a cloud is created over the plaintiff’s

title and he does not have possession, a suit for declaration

and possession, with or without a consequential injunction,

is the remedy. Where the plaintiff’s title is not in dispute or

under a cloud, but he is out of possession, he has to sue for

possession with a consequential injunction. Where there is

merely an interference with the plaintiff’s lawful possession

or threat of dispossession, it is sufficient to sue for an

injunction simpliciter. As the suit for injunction simpliciter is

concerned only with possession, normally the issue of title
35
O.S.No.5401/2015

will not be directly and substantially in issue. The prayer for

injunction will be decided with reference to the finding on

possession. But in cases where de jure possession has to be

established on the basis of title to the property, as in the case

of vacant sites, the issue of title may directly and

substantially arise for consideration, as without a finding

thereon, it will not be possible to decide the issue of

possession. In the present case on hand, there are pleadings

of the defendant and the evidences produced by the

defendant that before he was dispossessed by the plaintiff

from the written statement schedule property, he was in

possession and enjoyment of the written statement schedule

property. It is admitted fact by the defendant that he was

dispossessed by the plaintiff from the written statement

schedule property and he was out of possession over the

written statement schedule property, till his possession was

restored on 09.06.2015. As per the pleadings of the

defendant and the oral evidences of DW1 as well as the

documentary evidences produced by the defendant, as

aforesaid, on 09.06.2015, the defendant took possession of
36
O.S.No.5401/2015

the written statement schedule property through the process

of the Court. As per the pleadings of the defendant and the

oral evidences of DW1, he has put up shed and secured

electric connection to it. The defendant has produced Ex.D21

to Ex.D31. Among them, Ex.D21 and Ex.D22 are dated

03.12.2015 and Ex.D23 to Ex.D31 are for the year 2017 i.e.,

subsequent to filing of the suit and written statement. The

written statement of the defendant was filed on 13.07.2015.

Therefore, the said documents cannot be considered as a

proof of the pleadings of the defendant and the oral evidences

of DW1 that after restoration of the possession of the written

statement schedule property, the defendant has put up shed

and he has secured electric connection to it. The defendant

has not produced any documentary evidences to show that

after his possession to the written statement schedule

property was restored on 09.06.2015, he put up shed and

secured electric connection to it as averred in the written

statement deposed by DW1 in his examination-in-chief.

Though, the documentary evidences like Sale Deeds, Khatha

documents and Tax Paid Receipts are proving his lawful
37
O.S.No.5401/2015

possession over the written statement schedule property i.e.,

de facto possession of the defendant, he is not in de jure

possession of the written statement schedule property. The

defendant has also not produced any documentary evidences

to prove that after his possession on the written statement

schedule property was restored on 09.06.2015, the plaintiff

interfered with his peaceful possession and enjoyment of

written statement schedule property. For the above reasons,

the defendant has proved Additional Issue No.1 and 2. When

the defendant has not proved Issue No.1 and 2, he is not

entitle for the relief of permanent injunction as prayed.

Hence, I answer Additional Issue No.1 to 3 in the Negative.

30. POINT FOR CONSIDERATION :- By filing I.A.No.XV, the

defendant alleged that the plaintiff has made false pleadings,

filed false affidavits, suppressed judicial orders, fraudulently

obtained an order and misled this Court by making false

claim regarding possession and cause of action concealing

the judicial order during the judicial proceedings before this

Court. There are no evidences in that regard. The plaintiff in

his plaint has disclosed about the orders passed in execution
38
O.S.No.5401/2015

proceedings. As on the date of filing of the suit, the appeal

filed challenging the said orders in execution proceedings was

pending. It was also disclosed by the plaintiff in his plaint.

Therefore, there is no suppression of facts with regard to the

execution proceedings. It is true that before filing of the

present suit, the plaintiff has filed this suits in

O.S.No.4374/2015 and O.S.No.4297/2015. The said suits

were filed not only against the defendant herein, but also

against some other defendants. The plaintiff has withdrawn

the said suits. It appears from the contents of Ex.D35 and

Ex.D42 that the said suits were withdrawn by the plaintiff

after filing of the pleadings of both parties were completed in

this suit. Therefore, the allegation that the plaintiff

suppressed the withdrawal of the said suits has no merits.

The defendant has also not produced any evidences to prove

the false pleadings and the affidavits filed in the present suit.

For the above reasons the Judgments relied by the learned

Counsel for the defendant on I.A.No.XV are not applicable to

the present case on hand. Under these circumstances, the

defendant has not shown sufficient reasons to order to refer
39
O.S.No.5401/2015

the matter to Chief Administrative Officer of this Court to

lodged complaint against the plaintiff before the jurisdictional

Magistrate under Section 379 of Bharathiya Nagaraika

Suraksha Samhita, 2023 as prayed in I.A.No.XV. Hence, I

answer the Point for consideration in the Negative.

13. ADDITIONAL ISSUE No.4 :- In view of the findings on

Additional Issues No.1 to 3 and point for consideration, the

counter claim of the defendant and I.A.No.XV filed by the

defendant are liable to be dismissed with cost. In the result, I

proceed to pass the following;

ORDERS

The counter claim of the defendant
and I.A.No.XV filed by the defendant are
hereby dismissed with cost.

Draw the decree accordingly.
