Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Karnataka High Court's order vacating an interim injunction in a property dispute involving Uttaradi Mutt. The Court emphasized the need for balance in allowing both parties to perform religious rites without claiming ownership over the disputed land, referencing Order XXXIX Rule 3-A of the CPC. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to allow both parties to perform their respective poojas, subject to the outcome of the appeal, thereby maintaining the status quo pending further adjudication.
