(2.) The suit O.S. No.146 of 1995 on the file of Junior Civil Judge, Sathupalli, was filed by the plaintiff-respondent herein, praying for the relief of perpetual injunction restraining the defendants, their men, servants and persons claiming through them from in any way interfering with the peaceful possession and enjoyment of the plaintiff over the plaint schedule property. In the light of the respective pleadings of the parties, having settled the issues, the learned Junior Civil Judge, Sathupalli, recorded the evidence of P.Ws.1 to 7, D.Ws.l to 4, marked Exs.A1 to A18, Exs.Bl to B19, Exs.Cl to C8 and Exs.Xl to X16 and ultimately, dismissed the suit with exemplary costs.
