Holding

Summary
The petitioners, Kailash and another, filed a writ petition under Article 227 seeking a direction to the Civil Judge (Senior Division), Varanasi, to decide their Original Suit No. 444 of 2025 and the accompanying temporary injunction application within a stipulated period. The petition alleged that the suit was pending and required expeditious disposal.

Consequently, the Court disposed of the writ petition, directing the lower court to decide the suit and injunction application preferably within one and a half years, without unnecessary adjournments. The order emphasized adherence to law and avoidance of delays.
Issues considered
- Whether the High Court should issue a direction to the Civil Judge (Senior Division), Varanasi, to decide the pending Original Suit No. 444 of 2025 and the temporary injunction application within a specific time frame.
