¶17

The applicant/defendant filed an application seeking rejection of the plaint, below Exh. 19. The trial Court after considering the rival submissions, rejected the application vide impugned order dated 10.12.2024.

¶18

Mr. Dahale, learned Advocate appearing for the applicant submits that the plaintiff is raising a dispute as regards the mutation entry by filing a suit. He has already assailed the mutation entry before the Competent Authority under the Land Revenue Code and that dispute is pending before appellate authorities. As such, the Civil Court has no jurisdiction to deal with the correctness of the mutation entry. The suit filed by the plaintiff assailing such mutation entry, would not be maintainable, as such the plaint is liable to be rejected. In support of contention, learned Advocate relied upon following case laws :

¶27

Having considered the submissions advanced, it can

¶28

be observed that the respondent/plaintiff instituted a suit seeking decree of perpetual injunction for restraining applicant/defendant from interfering in his possession over the suit property. So also seeks injunction from alienating or creating third party interest based on mutation entries. Apparently the respondent/plaintiff asserted his title and

¶29

¶30

¶31

possession and contends that on the basis of incorrect mutation entries defendant is disturbing his possession, so also likely to create third party interest in the suit property.

¶32

6. The grant of decree of perpetual injunction under

¶33

provisions of Specific Relief Act, is exclusive domain of Civil Court. The contentions and the prayers in the suit, no where depicts that the respondent/plaintiff has any way challenged the mutation entries or seeking any relief as against the mutation entries. Admittedly the respondent/plaintiff has already resorted his remedies under the MLR Code, assailing the Mutation entries and restricted his prayer in suit for grant of decree of perpetual injunction. In that view of the matter, the trial Court is justified in rejecting the application filed by the applicant/defendant under Order VII Rule 11 of the CPC. No jurisdictional error is brought to the notice of this Court, hence the Civil Revision Application sans merit and is dismissed.
