Advocate Appeared:
For the Petitioner:Prem Narayan Tiwari, Sr. Advocate Sri Anil Bhushan
For the Respondent: Brajesh Kumar Dwivedi, Shiv Om Vikram Singh Chauhan

Judgement Key Points

Key Points: - The permission dated 28.11.2019 is prima facie not a lease since it lacks premium or rent and does not recite consideration (!) . - The appellate court erred in holding that Section 106 notice was mandatory before instituting the suit since no valid lease exists (!) . - The trial court found a prima facie case, balance of convenience in favor of petitioners, and that irreparable loss would occur if the brick-kiln and excavation continued; appellate court reversed (!) (!) (!) . - The document granting rights on 28.11.2019 is described as permission, not a lease; thus respondents cannot be treated as tenants by holding over (!) . - The court held that excavation and running a brick-kiln would damage agriculture and land fertility, justifying interim relief in favor of petitioners (!) (!) . - The final order sets aside the appellate court’s decision and restrains the respondents from running brick-kiln business on the suit property (!) . - The court directs expeditious disposal of the suit with possible costs for adjournments if necessary (!) .
