The case involves an appeal by Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd. against a High Court order that granted an interim injunction in favor of a petrol pump dealer. The core issue centers on whether the plaintiff was entitled to an interim injunction under Order 39 Rules 1 & 2 of the CPC to restrain the defendant from interfering with the possession and operation of the petrol pump.
