JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) In the present revisional application order no. 16 dated 23.03.2007,
order no. 17 dated 04.04.2007 and order no. 12 dated 13.02.2003 passed
by the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), Amta in Title Execution Case
No. 3 of 2001 have been assailed.
(2.) It is contended on behalf of the petitioners that the aforesaid Title
Execution Case No. 3 of 2001 was filed for executing a final decree
dated 09.02.2001 relating to a preliminary decree dated 29.06.1990
passed in Title Suit No. 152 of 1986 passed by the learned Civil
Judge (Junior Division), Amta. By such preliminary decree the
learned Court below directed the defendant/judgement-debtor to
execute a deed of reconveyance of the property mentioned in the
preliminary decree in favour of the plaintiff at the cost of the plaintiff
ignoring the provisions of Order 21 Rule 34 Sub-rule 2 CPC allowing
the decree holder to have the draft sale deed executed through Court.
Thus the judgement-debtor/ petitioner was denied the statutory
opportunities available to him to raise objection against the contents
of the sale deed which are wholly incorrect and misleading. Therefore,
the said deed is invalid in the eye of law.
(3.) It is further contended that while the disputed property was sold to
one Dibakar Bhandari, judgement-debtor/ petitioner by Narendra
Nath Manna, predecessor-in-interest of the plaintiff/ decree holder in
1974, the property was delivered in Khas to the petitioner and the
judgement-debtor was in common enjoyment of the tank and in joint
possession of the other property described in the schedule to the
extent of 1/3rd
share and the petitioner is still in possession and
common enjoyment of the property delivered to him. The property
sold comprises tank, agricultural land measuring .47 2/3 acre. It is
further contended by the petitioner that at no point of time during
and in course of the pendency of the said execution proceeding the
copy of the sale deed was ever sent or served upon the judgementdebtor/ petitioner as per provision of Order 21 Rule 34(2) CPC which
is mandatory. As a consequence all the orders passed by the learned
Executing Court dated 04.04.2007 and 23.03.2007 are illegal and
not maintainable in law and inconsistent with the provisions of Order
21 Rule 34 CPC. Therefore, he has prayed for setting aside those
orders and the entire execution proceeding recording satisfaction of
the decree in full and to set aside the sale deed executed and
registered through Court in favour of the decree holder.;
