Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against the High Court's order under Article 227, which had set aside the lower courts' rejection of an injunction application by the plaintiffs regarding property rights. The Court found that the High Court's interpretation of its earlier order in SLP [C] No.4263-65 of 1992 was justified, as it directed the parties to maintain status quo concerning the suit properties until the suit's disposal. The Court upheld the High Court's decision, affirming the need for clarity in property rights and injunctions.
