Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court directed the trial court to appoint a new Receiver following the death of the previous one, as mandated by the preliminary decree dated 10th October 1979 under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The Court emphasized the necessity for the Receiver to maintain and submit accounts for auditing, ensuring compliance with the earlier orders. The Court held that the trial court must act expeditiously to facilitate the final decree process, with a timeline set for the appointment within two months.
