1 - 4 of 4 (1.38 seconds)State Of Gujarat vs Patel Raghav Natha & Ors on 21 April, 1969
Mr. Bhasme, learned counsel for the appellant, contends
that in the absence of fixation of rule of limitation, the
power can be exercised withina reasonable time and in the
absenceof such prescription of limitation, the power to
enforcethe order is vitiatedby error of law. He places
reliance on the decisions in State of Gujarat vs. Patel
Raghav Natha &Ors. [(1970) 1 SCR 335]; Ram Chand & Ors. vs
Union of India& Ors.[(1994)1 SCC 44 ]; andMohamadKavi
MohamadAmin vs. Fatmabai Ibrahim [CA No. 5023/85 decided on
August 22, 1996]. We find no force in the contention. It is
seen that the order of ejectment against the applicant has
become final. Section 21 of the Mamalatdar's Court Actdoes
not prescribe any limitation within which the order needs to
be executed. In the absence of anyspecific limitation
provided thereunder, necessary implication is that the
generallaw oflimitation provided in Limitation Act (Act 2
of 1963) standsexcluded. The Division Bench, Therefore, has
rightlyheld that no limitation has been prescribed and it
can beexecuted at any time,especially when the law of
limitation forthe purpose ofthis appeal is not there.
Where there isstatutory ruleoperating in the field, the
impliedpower of exercise of the right within reasonable
limitation does not arise. The citeddecisions dealwith
that area and bear no relevanceto the facts.
