Judgment
DATE OF JUDGMENT 21/04/2025
REPORTABLE
With the consent of learned counsel for the parties, the
appeals are being decided by this common judgment.
These appeals arise out of the judgment and decree dated
12.10.2012 passed by Additional District Judge No.7, Jaipur
Metropolitan, Jaipur (for short 'the trial Court') in civil suit No.
(Downloaded on 24/04/2025 at 10:27:54 PM)
[2025:RJ-JP:16330] (4 of 8) [CFA-710/2012]
68/2006 (56/2006), whereby the suit filed by the plaintiff-Smt.
Gayatri Devi (for short 'the plaintiff') for partition as well as
permanent injunction was partly allowed in her favour and
preliminary decree was passed.
Brief facts of the case are that the eldest daughter of Deen
Dayal i.e. Smt. Gayatri Sharma filed a civil suit for partition and
permanent injunction against the defendants about the ancestral
property. The pedigree is showing the relationship of parties in
para No. 1 of the plaint. It was further mentioned in the para 2 of
the plaint that the properties left by plaintiff's grand father Late
Shri Gopal Sahai son of Shri Raghu Nath Sahai were joint
immovable properties situated in heart of Jaipur City Chokri i.e.
Nohra House Muncipal No.1766 Vishvesharji Sauthli Walon Ka
Rasta, inside Deewan Bhagchandra Ki Gali, Chaura Rasta, Jaipur
and agricultural land situated in Tehsil-Sanganer, Village Mahal
Patwar Jagatpura, Jaipur bearing old khasra No. 82 & new khasra
No. 454 admeasuring 0.20 hectare, khasra No. 455 admeasuring
3.01 hectare, khasra No. 456 admeasuring 0.01 hectare Gair
Mumkin Chah, Khasra No. 457 admeasuring 3.36 hectare total
admeasuring 6.58 hectare. It was also mentioned that said
property was undivided and the plaintiff was having 1/6th share
therein.
Defendant Nos. 1 and 2 had filed joint written statement and
defendant No. 3 filed separate written statement and mentioned
father and brothers of the plaintiff alleged their rights based
therein on the customary adoptions, Will and mutation. It was also
mentioned that they have sold the property by way of one
agreement in favour of defendant No. 8 i.e. Hasanpura Grah

[2025:RJ-JP:16330] (5 of 8) [CFA-710/2012]
Nirman Sahkari Samiti. Prior to this suit, disputed property was
mutually partitioned. Plaintiff received the amount of her share at
the time of marriage, so, she had no right to file the present suit.
Defendant No. 8 also filed written statement and mentioned
that Hasanpura Samiti had purchased the property by way of one
agreement and allotted the plot to their members and gave
possession to them also. It was also mentioned that present suit is
related to agricultural land. So, civil court had no jurisdiction to try
it.
Defendant Nos. 4 and 5 also filed their written statement and
claimed 1/6th share alongwith plaintiff in the disputed property.
On the basis of the pleadings of the parties, the trial Court
framed following issues-:

Learned Sr. counsel for the appellants as well as learned
counsel for the respondents jointly submit that trial Court had
committed an error in deciding the issue No. 4 that civil Court had
no jurisdiction to adjudicate the matter relating to agricultural
land. Learned Sr. counsel for the appellants as well as learned
counsel for the respondents also submit that present suit was a

[2025:RJ-JP:16330] (7 of 8) [CFA-710/2012]
composite suit. There is no dispute with regard to share between
the parties. It is an admitted position that disputed agricultural
land belongs to the late Gopal Sahai. Legal heirs of the Deen
Dayal had equal share in the disputed property. Learned Sr.
counsel for the appellants as well as learned counsel for the
respondents also submit that on account of composite suit the trial
Court had to decide the share of the parties with regard to
agricultural land.
Learned Sr. counsel for the appellants as well as learned
counsel for the respondents further submits that as per the
Section 54 of the Civil Procedure Code, 1908 as well as the
Rajasthan Tenancy Act and other tenancies Law, the trial Court
had to draw the preliminary decree with regard to agricultural land
and direct the District Collector or any other Gazetted officer
subordinate to District Collector who may be deputed by him on
his behalf for partition of the suit property in accordance with
Section 54 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 as well as
Rajasthan Tenancy Act.
Learned Sr. counsel for the appellants as well as learned
counsel for the respondents also submits that during the pendency
of this appeal Deen Dayal has died. So, share of legal heirs of
Deen Dayal should be modified to 1/5th instead of 1/6th. They
have prayed to modify the judgment and decree dated 12.10.2012
passed by the trial Court.
Learned counsel for the appellants has placed the reliance
upon the judgment passed in case of Janki Devi Vs. Mani Ram
& Ors. in civil regular first appeal No. 106/90 decided on
11.02.2000.

[2025:RJ-JP:16330] (8 of 8) [CFA-710/2012]
I have considered the arguments advanced by learned
counsel for the appellants as well as learned counsel for the
respondents.
It is an admitted position that present suit filed by Smt.
Gayatri Sharma with regard to partition and permanent injunction
of the immovable property as well as agricultural land as
mentioned in para 2 of the plaint. The trial Court vide judgment
and decree dated 12.10.2012 committed an error while deciding
the issue No. 4 and gave liberty to the appellants as well as
respondents to file partition suit before the revenue Court.
In my considered opinion, trial Court should have decided
the shares of the parties with regard to agricultural land.
Appellants as well as respondents, who are legal heirs of the Deen
Dayal, are entitled to get 1/5th share in the property which is
mentioned in para 2 of the plaint.
Accordingly, both the appeals are partly allowed and the
judgment and decree dated 12.10.2012 passed by the trial Court
is modified and trial Court is directed to send the matter for
division of the agricultural land to the District Collector, Jaipur with
a direction to partition the property as 1/5th share between the
legal heirs of the Deen Dayal as per the Rajasthan Tenancy Act or
other tenancies Law as may be applicable to the agricultural land
and thereafter to proceed in the matter for preparation of final
decree, in accordance with law.
Pending application(s), if any, stand(s) disposed of.
