IN THE COURT OF SH.
TARUN KUMAR VERMA, CIVIL JUDGE
(JUNIOR DIVISION), PANCHKULA
Civil Suit No.144/2015
IN THE MATTER OF:-
Rajesh Lohan Vs. Neelam
(Suit for mandatory injunction & for recovery)
WRITTEN ARGUABLE POINTS ON BEHALF OF DEFENDANT
RESPECTFULLY SHOWETH:
1. That the suit filed by the plaintiff is not maintainable, as under Section
39 of Specific Relief Act, a mandatory injunction can be issued against
any person, where the court can issue injunction for necessary to compel to
obey any terms and conditions which are not in existence. In the present
case, there is no license is in writing, which is mandatory in written and is
liable to be registered under the Registration Act, as it is a compulsory
registrable document under the Registration Act, hence the oral license is
not permissible, especially in the family members.
It is admitted case of the plaintiff that the defendant is legally
wedded wife of his real brother namely Rakesh Lohan, who is also
member of Joint Hindu Family headed by Sh. R.K. Lohan i.e. Sh. Ram
Karan Lohan. The defendant from the date of her marriage with Rakesh
Lohan, elder brother of the plaintiff was entered into her matrimonial
home i.e. H.No.166, Sector-21, Panchkula and from the date of her
marriage, defendant is enjoying the house in question, as her matrimonial
home. As and when any female got married in the family, she
automatically becomes the member of Joint Hindu Family. If her husband
died, she becomes the first legal heir of her husband and even if her
husband already expired before the father-in-law or mother-in-law in that
case also she automatically become the natural successor in her in-laws
property. Hence, the defendant has legal right to stay in her matrimonial
home, which belongs to her in-laws Hindu Joint Family.
2. That the plaintiff to pay the advolarum court fee under Section
7(v) of Court Fees Act. The present suit is barred by Law. It is neither a
suit for possession nor it is a rent petition, hence the issues framed in this
case are also not accordance with law. The suit for mandatory injunction
only maintainable, where any person is legally bound to comply with the
any term and conditions in the written instrument or is bound by Law or
Constitution. In the present case, there is no license in written or signed by
the defendant, she can’t be bounded and no injunction can be issued
against her, as she is not legally bounded by any instrument, which is to be
implemented under the mandatory injunction. Where there is no existence
of any written document or license in that case no license can be revoked
as alleged by the plaintiff.
3. That in para No.3 of the plaint as well as in PW-1, it was admitted
fact that the parents of the plaintiff, who are also the parents of the
husband of the defendant, used to stay in the same house earlier, which
shows that the house in dispute is the property of Joint Hindu Family and
was purchased from the Joint Hindu Family Funds by ‘Karta’ Sh. R.K.
Lohan, the father-in-law of the defendant. This fact was also admitted and
corroborated by virtue of statement of property filed by Sh. R.K. Lohan,
before appointing Authority/Haryana Govt. as Sh. R.K. Lohan was
working as Executive Engineer with the Haryana Govt. in PWD
Department, which is already exhibited in the present case.
4. That from the pleadings of the plaintiff, it has been stated in para
No.7 of the plaint as well as from the affidavit filed by PW-1, that the
defendant entered in the house on 14.02.2014. It was informed by
neighbourer namely Madhulika to the plaintiff, but neither Madhulika was
examined nor police officials were examined regarding this fact. If this
fact is reliable, then the plaintiff deemed to be unauthorized disposed,
having title in that case, the plaintiff is to file suit for possession U/s 6 of
Specific Relief Act, which only can be filed within 6 months from the date
of dispossession. But the present suit has been filed on 09.03.2015 without
affixing proper Court Fee, prescribed for suit for possession under the
market value, hence the present suit is not maintainable. Further in para
No.8, it was stated by the plaintiff that the father of the plaintiff, who
resides in this house, also made an application, if the plaintiff alleged, he is
not residing in India and his father has to use the house in dispute as
alleged in para No.3, then he can move a suit for possession against the
unauthorized dispossession, but Sh. R.K. Lohan, admitted this fact that the
house in dispute is in the possession of the defendant while making his
written statement before police, document to this regard is already on file.
It falsify the stand of the plaintiff that he was dispossessed from the house.
The matter of fact is that being legally wife of elder brother of the plaintiff,
the defendant was entered into this house in question as her matrimonial
home being daughter-in-law of Joint Hindu Family.
6. That in para No.9 to 11 of the plaint, it was admitted that since
husband of the defendant played a fraud in connivance with the plaintiff,
his wife Rupali and parents and sister of the plaintiff and regarding this an
FIR was registered against them at Panchkula bearing No.101 of 2014, U/s
420,406,498-A, 34, 323,494 IPC at P.S. Sector-5 Panchkula in which the
plaintiff and his brother Rakesh Lohan, who is husband of the defendant
declared PO and other family members are facing trial before the Trial
Court at Panchkula (copy of challan is also exhibited in the present case.
The present suit is a counter blast and only to put pressure upon the
defendant for compromise or leave the house in dispute. It is also
necessary to mention here that during the present suit, the defendant filed a
criminal Misc. petition before the Hon’ble Punjab & Haryana High Court
for cancellation of anticipatory bail granted to Sh. R.K. Lohan and his wife
and during that CRM-M, the matter was referred to Mediation Centre as
well as in the Court, where the matter was taken for compromise. The
plaintiff through his father so many offered a huge amount for compromise
and the factum of possession was also admitted by the plaintiff through his
father, hence the possession of the defendant in the house is legal one
being her matrimonial home and has right to reside in the same.
7. That in the whole pleadings of the plaintiff, it was never described that
when the license was granted to the defendant either orally or
documentary, in the absence of the same, the license could not be revoked.
The license has been described in the Easement Act, in which it is
clearly described that no license more than 11 years could be orally or
without registration/written. Hence, there is no license, which can bind the
defendant to comply with the terms and conditions and for which a
mandatory injunction can be issued against the defendant.
8. That in the suit, the plaintiff Rajesh Lohan never appeared as
witness, who is the best person to be examined regarding the facts of the
case. One Rupali Lohan, alleging herself as wife of Rajesh Lohan was
examined under one Special Power of Attorney, which was not embosses
from Indian Registration Authority. Without embosses from Indian
Registration Authority, the document is not a valid document and not
admissible in the evidence, hence the statement of Rupali could not be
read in the evidence. This objection was taken at the time of examination-
in-chief of Ms. Rupali which was kept pending for final decision of the
present case. The documents tendered by Rupali are also not legally
proved in the present case.
9. That it is admitted fact that during the purchase and construction of
the house in dispute, Rajesh Lohan was student and was studying in
Maharashthra as a hostel resident student. At that time, he was regular
student of the Babasaheb Naik College of Engineering, PUSAD,
Maharasthra. This factum was duly proved by way of examination of DW-
2 Sh. R.D. Jadav from the said institute, hence, since the name of Rajkaran
Lohan, Rajesh Lohan and Rakesh Lohan are written as initial as R.K.
Lohan. Raj Karan Lohan was Executive Engineer in the PWD Department
and from the income of Joint Hindu Family, he purchased properties,
which was later on got registered as Benami property in the name of
Rajesh Lohan for the purpose of obtaining VISA for the other countries,
which was used and it is admitted fact from the statement of alleged
attorney of the plaintiff namely Rupali. Hence, for the sake of arguments,
if it is presumed that Rajesh is owner of the property, in that case, the
property should be included into the property of Joint Hindu Family, as
submitted above noted paras, Sh. R.K. Lohan detailed this house as the
property of Joint Hindu Family in his property statement submitted before
the Department. If, it is denied, then it is benami property, which is
prohibited under the Law and in that case, the plaintiff could not claim a
rightful owner of the property and cannot seek the dispossession of the
defendant.
10. That it is also admitted fact that the FIR registered against the
plaintiff and his family members, was never challenged nor any
proceedings against that FIR were filed by the plaintiff or his family
members. Rupali, the alleged Power of Attorney of the plaintiff, also
misguided this Hon’ble Court and made a false statement. Matter of fact is
that one Andrea Sandra was earlier married with the husband of the
defendant namely Rakesh Lohan, who is owner of this House and their
marriage was also registered with the Sub-Registrar Panchkula, which was
also arranged by Rupali, because she is fast friend of Andrea Sandra. This
fact has also been proved from the photographs produced by the
defendant, duly exhibited, hence Rupali is also liable to be prosecuted
under Section 340 Cr.P.C. for filing false affidavit and supply wrong
information before the Court of competent jurisdiction. During the cross
examination of the defendant, the defendant particularly questioned as
court question regarding harassment, humiliation or demand, as Rakesh
Lohan never visited India since Feb.2013.
In reply, it was specifically answered by the defendant at page
No.4 of DW-1, which is unchallenged that “ jkds'k us eq>s dgk fd
edku u- 166] lsDVj 21] iapdqyk okyk ?kj esjs yxk;s iSlksa
ls cuk gS vkSj fy;k x;k gS] blfy, vc eq>s 15 yk[k dh t:jr
gS tksfd tSls&rSls djds eq>s nks”, after this fact which
unchallenged, neither Rakesh was summoned as witness nor he was joined
as defendant, who is necessary party in the present suit, as the defendant
entered into the foot step of Rakesh Lohan being legally wedded wife and
if any alleged license was given that was given to Rakesh Lohan, the
husband of the defendant, who brought the answering defendant in this
house as daughter-in-law of the Joint Hindu Family as well as his wife. In
the whole pleadings, neither it was pleaded nor taken defence that the
family was partitioned and never have any jointness or any partition was
ever effected from any of court of competent jurisdiction or orally, hence it
has been proved that the house in dispute belongs to Joint Hindu Family
and being matrimonial home of the defendant, she has right to stay and is
not liable to pay any future mesne profits @ Rs.50,000/- per month. On
one hand, the plaintiff claiming that the defendant entered into the portion
of house in his pleading and on the other hand, the plaintiff claiming future
mesne profits as well as possession of the entire house, both pleadings are
contradictory with each and other and fails the whole case of the plaintiff.
Further it was also stated by the DW-1 at page No.7 that “my matrimonial
home is House No.166, Sector-21, Panchkula, so being matrimonial home,
I have right to stay in the house in dispute”. It was not also challenged or
disputed by the plaintiff.
11. That further the defendant duly proved from the Income Tax
Department as well as from the banks that the plaintiff has no independent
income besides income from the Joint Hindu Family during the purchase
& construction of the present house, who were examined as DW-3 to DW-
9. All witnesses proved that they can’t describe the full abbreviation of
R.K. Lohan, whether it is under the name of Ram Karan Lohan, or Rajesh
Lohan and Rakesh Lohan. From the perusal of all documents, it is very
much clear that all the signatures were done by one and same person
which were done by Raj Karan Lohan, the father of the plaintiff and
husband of the defendant, hence Raj Karan Lohan is also liable to be
prosecuted for creating false document as well as evidence and even all
documents may kindly be sent for Forensic Examination in order to
ascertain the truth. In this sequence, the important document is attested
copy of Ex.PW-2/B, which is an application for getting permission from
Estate Office for permission of transfer, which bears the signature of
Rajesh Lohan at page No.98 and page No.13 of the file the Estate Office
presented by witness PW-2, which is totally different and this Hon’ble
Court can also consider and take appropriate judicious notice regarding the
signatures. Hence all the documents in India were prepared by Ram Karan
Lohan by putting his signature of Rajesh Lohan and Rakesh Lohan, which
proves that the house in dispute is the house of Joint Hindu Family and the
defendant has right to stay in her matrimonial home, as daughter-in-law
and her matrimonial house.
12. That it is also admitted fact that after the marriage of defendant, a
dispute was arisen and specific reply came at page No.13 of PW-1 that
“eq>s ;kn u gS fd 10-01-2013 dks ge lHkh QSeyh eSEcjl o
izfroknh vkSj mlds QSeyh eSEcjl edku u- 166@21] iapdqyk esa
bDdBk gq, gksa”. It is crucial date when both the parties i.e. Joint Hindu
Family of the plaintiff and defendant and the family of the defendant
conveyed a Panchayat and it was settled that one person be appointed as
Arbitrator, who shall decide the matter and legally rights of the defendant
as daughter-in-law in the Joint Hindu Family regarding this house, as well
as in the other property as well. Both parties given their consent and the
real brother-in-law of the plaintiff namely Jai Kumar Maan was appointed
as Arbitrator, who given his arbitration award, which was later on
produced on the file and was duly exhibited. Neither any objection is
raised regarding the passing of the arbitration award nor it was denied or
challenged. If for the sake of arguments, defendant could not prove her
right in the matrimonial home, in that case, the defendant become owner in
possession of the house by virtue of Arbitration Award, which is
executable as decree from the Court of competent jurisdiction. The
defendant reserves her right to file the execution of the award, which
become final and duly proved on the file. During the pendency of the
present case, although the matter is sub-judice before this Hon’ble Court,
Raj Karan Lohan moved a false application to put the pressure upon the
defendant in the police. SHO (Economic Cell), P.S. Sector-20, Panchkula
summoned the defendant regarding validity of award which is the part of
the file of the suit pending before this Hon’ble Court. Police have got no
jurisdiction to entertain and decide the validity of the award, as the civil
litigation as well as criminal litigations are pending before the court of
competent jurisdiction i.e. before this Hon’ble Court. Moreover, the
plaintiff not filed any objection nor challenged the award or produced the
arbitrator to rebut the factum of passing of the award by him. Since Jai
Kumar Man is real son-in-law of Raj Karan Lohan and real brother-in-law
of plaintiff, who is working as Deputy CMO in Health Department of
Haryana Government, whose signature and handwriting is easily available
for comparison, but without putting defence before this Hon’ble Court, Raj
Karan Lohan, who has no concern with the present suit, only with the
motive to put pressure upon the defendant filed the false application with
the police.
In view of above submissions and documents on the file
which may kindly be read as part and parcel of this written arguments and
law laid down by the various Hon’ble High Courts as well as the Hon’ble
Supreme Court attached with this written arguments, the suit of the
plaintiff may kindly be dismissed with costs being false and frivolous and
not maintainable in view of Section 39 of the Specific Relief Act as well
as barred by the law, with observation being not properly valued for the
purpose of mandatory injunction as well as possession with costs. It is
further prayed that any explanatory costs be imposed for harassment,
humiliation, mental torture and dragging the defendant into false litigation.
