    The High Court at Calcutta dismissed the writ petition, holding that police authorities cannot adjudicate property disputes between competing claimants. While the petitioner claimed Bargadar (tenant) rights to cultivate disputed land and respondents claimed ownership through purchase, the court directed parties to pursue their claims through appropriate civil forums rather than police intervention, instructing police only to maintain peace and order.
