1. Leave granted.

2. The question that needs determination in the present appeal is as to whether Civil Court lacks the jurisdiction to entertain the suit filed by the respondent herein or the subject matter of the suit lies within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tribunal constituted under the Rajasthan Wakf Act, 1995 (hereinafter to be referred as the ‘Act’), having regard to the provisions of Section 85 of the Act. Though the suit was filed by the Respondent in the Civil Court, it is on the application of the Respondent itself stating that the suit was not maintainable in view of the bar contained in Section 85 of the Act, the Civil Court returned the plaint accepting the said contention of the Respondent. The Petitioners herein, who were the Defendants in the suit, challenged the order of the Civil Court by filing Revision Petition under Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure in the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan, at Jodhpur. The said Revision Petition is also dismissed by the impugned orders. It is how the present proceedings arise, questioning the validity of the orders of the High Court.
