1. CM No. 83-C of 2009 For the reasons mentioned in the application order dated 02.12.2008 is recalled and the appeal is restored to its original number. CM stands disposed of. CM No. 2659-C of 2008 For the reasons mentioned in the application delay of 76 days in refiling the appeal is condoned. CM stands disposed of. RSA No. 885 of 2008 This is defendants second appeal challenging the judgment and decrees of the Courts below whereby suit of the plaintiff-respondent for declaration to the effect that plaintiff (Masjid Patti Niyamatpur, Mouja Talakaur) is being managed by a Committee which has been constituted by Mohammedan community of the village Talakaur, Tehsil Jagadhari, District Yamuna Nagar and for permanent injunction restraining the defendants from interfering in the management and control of the registered committee of the Masjid, has been dismissed.

2. It is the case of the plaintiff-respondent that the land in dispute vests in Masjid Patti Niyamatpur, village Talakaur, Tehsil Jagadhari, District Yamuna Nagar. After the partition of the country the Mohammedan community of village Talakaur appointed Noordin as the Mohatmim of the Masjid. The Deputy Commissioner sanctioned mutation in favour of the aforesaid Noordin in respect of Mohatmimship of the Masjid. Noordin failed to perform his duties properly because of his advanced age and failing health. Therefore, Mohammedan community again assembled on February 12, 1985 and constituted a committee for effective management of the plaintiff Masjid and its properties. Resultantly, Noordin was removed as the Mohatmim of the Masjid who failed to render accounts to the community. The newly appointed committee took charge of the Masjid and its properties on February 12, 1985, itself. The aforesaid committee is registered with the Registrar of Societies, Haryana. Noordin had expired 7 to 8 years prior to the filing of the suit. He had no authority to appoint a Mohatmim to manage the affairs of the Masjid. The defendants have allegedly formed a group in the village who have set their evil eyes on the property of the Masjid. The matter was also reported to the police. The SDM, Jagadhari attached the property under Section 145 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and delivered the possession of the property to a duly appointed receiver pending disposal of the suit. On the other hand, it was stated by the appellant that the Masjid is owner of the property in dispute. Late Noordin, uncle of the appellant Abdul Latif was Mohatmim of the Masjid who was in actual physical cultivating possession of the properties. Appellant Abdul Latif extended all possible help to his uncle to manage the affairs of the Masjid. Noordin who was appointed as Mohatmim vide order dated 12.11.1950 passed by Deputy Commissioner, Ambala executed a valid Will in favour of the appellant on 04.12.1981, thereby appointing him as the Mohatmim to manage the affairs of the Masjid after his death. There is no managing committee in existence and the suit has been filed by a fictitious body. The power to appoint the Mohatmim is with the Deputy Commissioner and not with the Mohammedan community. The latter has no right, title or interest in the properties of the Masjid and there had been a series of litigation in respect of the right to manage the affairs of the Masjid and its properties.

3. The defendants also filed counter claim and submitted that Civil Suit No. 440 of 1985 titled as Masjid Patti Niyamatpur v. Shokat Ali & ors was dismissed vide judgment and decree dated 27.01.1995. Appeal filed by defendant No. 1 against that order was also dismissed. The plaintiff through its President moved an application before the SDM for getting possession of the suit property which was accepted vide order dated 30.11.1999 and passed the order to give the possession to the committee through its President. The plaintiff has already got the possession of the property in dispute and has started threatening t
