5. In the said appeal in A.S. No. 34 of 2021, the 1st Respondent filed I.A. No. 310 of 2021 under Order 41, Rule 5(1) of C.P.C. to suspend the operation of the decree and judgment passed in O.S. No. 369 of 2018, dated 02.09.2021, on the file of the Principal Senior Civil Judge, Narsaraopet, till disposal of the appeal.

6. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the Appellate Court ought not to have allowed I.A.
