    Summary: The High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Madhab Pradhan seeking police intervention to permit construction on disputed land. The court held that since a title suit (T.S. Case No. 115 of 2022) is already pending before the Civil Court regarding inter se rights between the petitioner and private respondents (brothers claiming ownership), police authority is not the appropriate forum to resolve property disputes. The petitioner was directed to pursue his remedy through the pending civil litigation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
