JHARKHAND HIGH COURT ISSUES ORDER ON RAJNI KAUR V/S STATE OF JHARKHAND AND ORS.

RANCHI, India, May 7 -- Jharkhand High Court issued the following order on April 6:

1. Heard the parties.

2. This petitioner is challenging Annexure-6. It is the grievance of the petitioner that the land in question, has been mutated in the name of private respondents, though the petitioner is in possession over the same. He submits that based on a measurement of 2016, the respondents have passed the impugned order.

3. It is the case of the petitioner that the private respondents have encroached the land of this petitioner and are making construction.

4. From Annexure-6, which is an order dated 30.05.2025, I find that both the parties are claiming title over the land in question. Thus, no order can be passed in an application under Article 226 of the Constitution.

5. The petitioner is directed to approach the Civil Court for declaration of the petitioner's right, title and interest over the property.

6. The petitioner if so advised, may also file an application under Order XXXIX Rule 1 & 2 of C.P.C. in the suit to be filed.

7. With the aforesaid observations, this writ petition stands disposed of.
