Habib Mir and ors. Vs. Abdullah Mir

Court: Jammu and Kashmir

Decided on: Jun-12-2003

Reported in: 2003(3)JKJ200

Nisar Ahmad Kakru, J. Much controversy is raised by learned counsel for the petitioner with respect to the powers of the Court in providing police assistance. It is contended that Court lacks powers to pass such direction. I am not impressed by this argument at all for the simple reason that Court has inherent powers under Section 151, Code of Civil Procedure to pass appropriate orders which are necessary for administering substantive justice and to prevent the abuse of the process of the Court. Nonetheless, assistance cannot be provided to enable a party to create rights in the suit property but such assistance can be extended to protect the right of the parties which are conferred upon it by substantive law or by mandate of a judicial order. Thus what emerges is that before order for police assistance is granted, it is the duty of the Court to apply its mind to ascertain that the direction which is sought to be implemented by police assistance is not evasive and does not admit ambigu...

Dr. Fayaz Ahmad Sofi Vs. State of J and K

Court: Jammu and Kashmir

Decided on: Jun-12-2003

Reported in: 2003(3)JKJ154

Nisar Ahmad Kakru, J. 1. In pursuance of the advertisement notice, the petitioner applied for the post of Assistant Professor in the specialty of General Medicine. Selection was made on the basis of evaluation of the research work and performance in the interview. The process clinched in selection of respondents 4 to 6 which is questioned through this writ petition. During the pendency of the writ petition, the petitioner moved an application seeking a direction against the respondents for his appointment against the vacant post of Assistant Professor. In response to the application, Mr. Magray admitted that one of the. Assistant Professors has abandoned his services and post is lying vacant against which the petitioner can be adjusted if Court permits. The statement so made at the bar makes it easy enough to pass a direction for appointment of the petitioner, yet with a view to ensure that such direction does not confer any undue advantage upon the petitioner which may enable him to s...

Nisar Ahmad Kakru, J.1. The petitioner Junior Engineers (Civil) were assigned the charge of Assistant Engineers in their own pay and grade. This stop gap arrangement is undone by the Government vide Order No. 138/Works of 2003 dated 1.4.2003, consequently, this writ petition, inter alia, on the ground that the Government has not correctly determined the number of vacancies falling within the quota of degree holders.
