Chandu Naik & Ors vs Sita Ram B. Naik & Anr on 6 December, 1977

14. Considering the aforesaid provisions, in the case of Chandu Naik and others vs. Sitaram B. Naik and another (1978) SCC 210, the Apex Court held that in substance and in effect a proceeding under Section 145 of the CRPC is not for the purpose of evicting any person from any land but is primarily concerned with the prevention of the breach of peace by declaring the person found in possession to be entitled to remain in possession until evicted therefrom in due course of law. Section 145(6)(a) treats the party dispossessed within the period provided for in the proviso to sub-section (4) as being in possession of the disputed property on the date of the order under sub-section (1). Restoration of possession to the party wrongfully dispossessed attracting the proviso to sub-section (4) is in substance and in effect, putting back the party in possession for deciding his possession on the date of the preliminary order made under sub-section (1). Although the party who forcibly and wrongfully dispossessed the other party has to be factually and physically evicted from the property, by a legal fiction it is only for the purpose of treating the latter party in possession on the date of the preliminary order.
