Gurdev Singh vs Narain Singh

The Supreme Court held that the executing Court exceeded its jurisdiction by interpreting a decree for permanent injunction, which only restrained the appellant from planting trees, to include the removal of existing trees. The Court emphasized that the decree did not authorize the removal of trees already planted, and the executing Court's interpretation was a jurisdictional error. The High Court's affirmation of this erroneous interpretation was also set aside, reinforcing that the executing Court cannot go beyond the decree's explicit terms.
