The defendants disputed all the facts mentioned in suit and contended that the disputed land is situated in municipal area and Municipal Board, Salumber is owner of the disputed land and plaintiff has made encroachment over the said land, so the defendant removed the encroachments made by the plaintiff on the disputed land on 3.11.1971, however, the plaintiff again unauthorisedly gained possession of the said property for which the defendants registered a case against the plaintiff. The defendant also stated in the written statement that the plaintiff did not give two months' notice to the defendant under Section 279 of the Municipalities Act. The defendants also stated in their reply that they have right to remove the encroachments made over the said land and prayed that the suit filed by the plaintiff may be rejected.
