Impugned order states that the inspector in-charge has submitted a report stating that there is a dispute regarding possession of the land bearing Gata No.2393 situated in a village Narapatkheda between the parties. Although the Sub Divisional Magistrate Sadar, Lucknow passed an injunction order, the parties are repetitively violating the order and they are trying to take possession of the land in dispute.

¶10

4. The parties have been challaned under Section 107/116 Cr.P.C. to maintain peace. There was animosity and an apprehension of breach of peace by the parties regarding possession of the land in dispute. Therefore, it was necessary to initiate proceedings under Sections 145/146 Cr.P.C. For the aforesaid reason, the Executive Magistrate directed the parties to maintain peace and status quo and to appear before him on 27.09.2022 to present their respective case.

¶13

7. The applicants have already filed their objections against the preliminary order, which are pending consideration of the Magistrate. In these circumstances, there is no occasion for this Court to exercise its inherent power in respect of the proceedings, which are yet to be decided finally and which are pending before the competent authority i.e. Police Commissioner/Executive Magistrate South, Police Commissionerate, Lucknow.

¶14

8. Accordingly, the application is disposed of with a direction to Police Commissioner/Executive Magistrate South, Police Commissionerate, Lucknow to take a final decision in the matter in accordance with law after taking into consideration the objections filed by the applicants and other parties, if any, expeditiously, say within a period of 2 months from the date of receipt a certified copy of this order.
