In or about 1981, the said Shri Malladev, instituted Title Suit No. 210 of 1981, before the learned Judge, 2nd Court, Alipore, for eviction of the tenants Shri Dinesh Chandra Agarwals and others Admittedly, on or about 25th November, 1985, the said suit was decreed on compromise and on the basis thereof, the tenants i.e. Shri Dinesh Chandra Agarwala and others were given liberty to occupy the suit premises upto 31st December, 1985 and vacate the same thereafter.

Then, on 10th April, 1986, Smt. Mundra filed an application for stay of the execution of the concerned decree, which was refused by the executing court and then, a prayer for time was made on her behalf, to move this Hon'ble Court.
