Abdul Rejak Laskar vs Mafizur Rahman

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of partition and the jurisdiction of civil courts under Section 154(1)(e) of the CPC. The Court held that the jurisdiction of civil courts is barred when a matter falls within the exclusive domain of a statutory authority, emphasizing the need for necessary parties in a partition suit. The judgment of the Gauhati High Court was set aside, restoring the decree of the Trial Court in favor of the appellant, affirming the importance of proper legal procedure in property disputes.
