Alternative pleas/contradictory pleas holds no significance when suit was decreed on main relief - suit filed for recovery of possession from the Licensees as they acted against the interest of owner after terminating the License - the defendants claimed as tenants - Suit filed with alternative relief under Bombay Rent Act as the defendants claimed as tenants - Lower court dismissed the suit as the defendants are tenants - Appeal allowed as the defendants are Licensees not tenant and High court set aside the Appeal decree and restored the dismissal order of Lower court on the ground that the plaintiff has taken alternative/ contradictory pleas - Apex court set aside the order of High court and held that the appellate Court had granted relief to the appellant not in relation to the alternative plea raised by him but on the principal case set up by the plaintiff.

Or.39, rule 7 of C.P.C - Petition for preservation of properties belongs to the petitioner - as the Govt. is going to demolish the building in road widening scheme - Or.39, rule 1 made absolute against the petitioner infavour of the respondent - Trial court allowed the Petition wrongly - their lordships held that In a suit for injunction, though the question of possession as on the date of filing of the suit is most relevant, there may be other ancillary and incidental questions as to the conduct of the parties before the Court. The concept of possession in law should take in its spectrum all rights, liabilities, immunities and claims vis-`-vis the property which is said to be in possession. When the Court recorded a prima facie finding that Gayatri bai is in possession, she was also in law entitled to take advantage of that presumption. Unless the defendant properly pleads and proves at the earliest stage regarding any such movables or immovables attached to the immovable property, no defendant can be heard of saying that his belongings were lying in the disputed property. - 2015 A.P.(2001) MSKLAWREPORTS
