MOHAN LAL KATARIA Vs. NAGAR PARISHAD SRI GANGANAGAR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) - This revision petition has been filed against the order of the learned Additional District Judge No. 1, Sri Ganganagar dated Nov. 29, 1991 by which he has dismissed the appeal and confirmed the order of the learned Additional Munsif, Sri Ganganagar dated 11/10/1990, rejecting the application of the plaintiff-petitioners moved under Order 39, Rules 1 and 2, C.P.C. The facts of the case giving rise to this revision petition may be summarised thus.

(2.) The plaintiff-petitioners filed a suit for permanent injunction against the Nagar Parishad, Sri Ganganagar (non-petitioner No. 1) with the allegations, in short, that public part exists in front of their shops, a piece of land measuring 15' x 10' of this park is being given to Sain Khadi Gramodhyog Samiti, Ganganagar (non-petitioner No. 2) for installing its STD/PCO booth without any authority and if the booth is constructed the frontage of their shops would be obliterated and praying that the Nagar Parishad, Sri Ganganagar be restrained from doing so. An application under Order 39, Rules 1 and 2, C.P.C. was moved. It was seriously opposed by the Nagar Parishad by filing its detailed reply. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties, the learned Additional Munsif dismissed it by his order dated Oct. 11, 1990. An appeal was filed. It appears from the order of the appellate court dated Nov. 29,1991 that Sain Khadi Gramodhyog Samiti, Sri Ganganagar was also impleaded in it as respondent No. 2. This appeal was also dismissed as said above.

(3.) It has been contended by the learned counsel for the plaintiff-petitioners that both the lower courts have seriously erred to hold that the plaintiffs have failed to establish a prima facie case and balance of convenience in their favour and also that they would suffer irreparable loss if the temporary injunction is not granted. He contended that no part of the land of the public park can be utilised for any purpose and could be given to Sain Khadi Gramodhyog Samiti for installing STD/ PCO booth. He also contended that installation of the booth will obliterate the frontage of the shop of the plaintiffs. He lastly contended that there is no space near the toilet block. He relied upon Bangalore Medical Trust v. B.S. Mudappa, AIR 1991 SC 1902 :1991 AIR SCW 2082.
