GRAM PANCHAYAT Vs. SUBASADAK

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE defects pointed out by the Registry are waived for the purpose of admission. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner on merits.

(2.) BY the order dt. 20.03.2012, learned Court subordinate dismissed the application preferred by the petitioner applicant Gram Panchayat for becoming party to the proceedings.

(3.) I do not find any merit in the argument advanced. From perusal of the facts available on record, it is apparent that the respondent plaintiff is claiming a decree of permanent injunction and not a decree of declaration pertaining to title. It is further relevant to note that the land in question has already been given by the Gram Panchayat to the Public Health Engineering Department to establish its pump house and the Public Health Engineering Department is already a party defendant in the suit concerned. After handing over the land to the Public Health Engineering Department, it cannot be said that the Gram Panchayat is a party necessary. No error, therefore, has been committed by the learned Court subordinate that may warrant interference of this Court while exercising powers under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The writ petition, therefore, is dismissed.
