Orders
The High Court at Calcutta dismissed the writ petition filed by Krishnendu Maity and others seeking mandamus to direct police authorities to protect their land rights and possession. The court declined to interfere, reasoning that since multiple civil suits (T.S. No.505 of 2022 and T.S. No.574 of 2022) and an appeal remain pending before civil courts, any police intervention could render those proceedings infructuous. The petitioners retain the right to pursue their remedy through the ongoing civil litigation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
