Judge(Junior Division), Basti to decide the Suit No. 771 of

1989(Raj Pati and another vs. Smt. Savitri Singh and others)

within a stipulated time period.

It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioners that the

suit was filed by the plaintiff-respondents for cancellation of

sale deed and the learned court below vide order dated

30.3.1991 directed the parties to maintain status quo.

Defendants-petitioners had put in appearance and filed written

statement on 21.12.1989. Lastly, it is submitted that on account

of delaying tactics adopted by plaintiff-respondents, the case

could not proceed and is pending since 1989.

Without going into merit of the case, it is appropriate that the

above suit be decided expeditiously.

In view of above, 10th Additional Civil Judge(Junior Division),

Basti/Court concerned is directed to decide the Suit No. 771 of

1989(Raj Pati and another vs. Smt. Savitri Singh and others)

expeditiously, if possible within one year from the date of

production of certified copy of this order without granting

adjournment unnecessarily to either of the parties, unless there

is any legal impediment.

With aforesaid direction, the instant petition under Article 227

of the Constitution of India is finally disposed of.
