Court: Patna

Decided on: Sep-11-2007

Navaniti Pd. Singh, J.1. Office report is that the civil revision application against refusal to grant temporary injunction under Order 39, Rule 2A would not lie to this Court, as against an order granting or refusing to grant injunction an appeal is provided in terms of Order 43, Rule 1 (r) of the Code of Civil Procedure and the said miscellaneous appeal would lie to the District Judge or this Court, subject to valuation.2. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that in view of Section 115(1) CPC and the judgment of the Apex Court in the case of Smt. Vidya Vati v. Shri Devi Das since reported in AIR 1977 SC 397 the revision is maintainable in this Court because considering the valuation no appeal would lie to this Court.

If the intervene has any grievance against the respondents, he is at liberty to file a substantive independent writ application. Intervention to support the writ petition is not permissible.3. Thus, I. A. No. 1086 of 2006 is dismissed accordingly.4. Heard.5. The petitioners are approved contractors of Central Government, BSNL, Public Sector undertaking etc. They had several contracts with BSNL, who are party respondents in this writ petition and have appeared.
