AMITABHA DUTTA, J. ( 1 ) THIS revisional application tinder Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure is directed against an order dated 4-1-83 passed by the learned District Judge, Hooghly in Misc. Appeal No. 4 of 1983 staying the operation of an ex parte order of ad interim injunction dated 22-12-82 made by the learned Munsif-in-charge 1st Court, Hooghly in Title Suit No. 256 and of 1982. ( 2 ) IT appears that on 23-12-82 the petitioner along with opposite party NO. 2 filed Title Suit No. 256 of 1982 in the First Court of Munsif, Hooghly against the defendant-opposite party No. 1, Dun- lop India Limited challenging the order of suspension and the charge-sheet issu ed against the petitioner by the defen dants' letters Nos. CS/2/82 and CS/1/82 dated 26-11-82 respectively. The plaintiff also filed a petition under Order 39, Rule 1 and 2 read with Section 151 of the Code for an order of temporary injunction against the defendant restraining it from giving effect to the said charge-sheet and also from taking any further penal action against the plaintiff till the disposal of the suit and an order of ad interim in junction to that effect on the grounds stated in the petition. On the same date the learned Munsif passed order issuing notice on the defendant to show cause within 10 days from the service thereof why the plaintiff's petition for temporary injunction should not be allowed and granting an ad interim injunction in terms of the plaintiff's prayer against the defendant till the disposal of the injunc tion matter. The defendant company ap peared in the suit and on 3-1-83 moved an application under Order 39, Rule 4 of the Code with notice to the plaintiffs for vacaing their interim injunction. The learned Munsif fixed the matter on 6-1- 83 for hearing. In the meantime on 4-1- 83 the defendant preferred Mise.

Appeal No. 4 of 1983 before the learned District Judge, Hooghly against the order of ad interim injunction and applied for stay of operation of the said order till the disposal of the appeal; The learned Dis trict Judge ordered issue of notice upon the plaintiffs-respondents to show cause within seven days of service of the notice why the stay order as prayed for should not be granted and passed the impugned order of interim stay of operation of the order of ad interim injunction under appeal. ( 3 ) IT is, submitted by the learned advocate for the petitioner that the learned District Judge has acted illegally or with material irregularity in exercise of his jurisdiction in passing the impugned stay order as no appeal flies) under Order 43, Rule 1 (r) of the Code against an order of ad interim injunction when an application under Order 39, Rule 4 of the Code for varying or vacating the said order is pending before the Court of first instance. In support of his submissions he has relied on the Bench decision in Ab-dul Shukeer v. Uma Chander, AIR 1976 Mad 350 and in Zilla parishad v. B. R. Sharma (FB ). On the other hand it is submitted by the learned Advocate for the defendant-opposite party No. 1 that the remedies available to the defendant against an ex parte order of ad interim injunction are by way of an application for vacating or varying the order under Order 39, Rule 4 and an appeal under Order 43, Rule 1 (r) of the Code and that the two remedies being concurrent, there is no substance in the present revisional application. In support of this contention reliance has been placed on the Bench decision in United Club v. Nowgong Football Association, AIR 1964 Assam 81 in which the point at issue in the present case directly arose and was decided. ( 4 ) IN my opinion, the submissions made on behalf of the opposite party are well founded and must prevail. In support of this contention reliance has been placed on the Bench decision in United Club v. Nowgong Football Association, AIR 1964 Assam 81 in which the point at issue in the present case directly arose and was decided. ( 4 ) IN my opinion, the submissions made on behalf of the opposite party are well founded and must prevail. In Abdul Shukoor v. Umachander a Division Bench of the Madras High Court has found that the grant of temporary or ad Interim injunction comes under two broad decisions viz. ad interim injunction granted by the court until disposal of the suit and ad interim injunction granted until further order and that the former presupposes a final order with reasons after hearing both parties and a conclusive determination of the right of the plaintiff to the grant of such order and so it is appealable under Order 43, Rule 1 (r) but the latter is less severe and issued without formal expression of the court's decision, as a step in aid to a reasoned final order to he passed after notice and hearing both parties and so no appeal lies against such order, the only remedy against it being provided under Order 39, Rule 4 so that a final reasoned order can be obtained for appeal under Order 43, Rule 1 (r) of the Code. With due respect to the learned Judges of the Madras High Court, I find it difficult to agree with their views as, in my opinion, the provisions for appeal in Order 43, Rule 1 (r) that an appeal shall lie from "an order under Rule 1, Rule 2, Rule 2a, Rule 4 or Rule 10 of Order XXXIX" do not permit classification of an order of ad interim injunction under Order 39, Rule 1 or Rule 2 or both into two divisions and taking one of the divisions out of the purview of appeal. The courts should adopt an interpretation which maintains rather than curtails a remedial right, even if it leads to a multiplicity of proceedings. The right of appeal being a creation of the statute, its scope must be determin ed by a reference to the provisions of the statute conferring it and cannot be whittled down by in orpretation. It is also a substantive right and not a mere matter of procedure. The right of appeal being a creation of the statute, its scope must be determin ed by a reference to the provisions of the statute conferring it and cannot be whittled down by in orpretation. It is also a substantive right and not a mere matter of procedure. I also respectfully agree with the views of the Pull Bench of Allahabad High. Court in Zilla Pari- shad v. B. R. Sharma, has expressed in the following observa tions occurring in paragraph 12 of the judgment:"rule 1 (r) of Order 43 does not say that an appeal shall He from a final order under Rule 1 or Rule 2 of Order XXXIX no adequate reason is shown for interpolating the word "final" before "order" in Rule 1 (r ). Courts do not ordinarily make additions in enactments. That is a legislative function". In the aforesaid Allahabad case the point for decision was whether an appeal lies against an ex parte ad interim order or not or whether such order falls within the purview of Rule 1 (r) of Order 43. In deciding that point the Full Bench expressed its views in paragraph 16 of the judgment in the following words:--"the language and the object of Rule 1 (r) of Order 43 and the scheme of Rules 1 and 4 of Order 39 show that an appeal also lies against the ex parte order of injunction. As soon as an interim injunction is issued and the party affected thereby is apprised of it he has two remedies: (1) He can either get the ex parte injunction order, discharged or varied or set aside under Rule 4 of Order 39 and if unsuccessful avail the right of appeal as provided under Order 43. Rule 1 (r) or (2) straightway file an appeal under Order 43, Rule 1 (r) against the injunction order, passed under Rules, 1 and 2 of Order 39, C. P. C. , It is riot unusual, to provide for alternative remedies. For instance when an ex parte decree is passed against a person he has two remedies either he may go up in appeal against the ex parte decree or he may seek to get the ex parte decree set aside by the same court". For instance when an ex parte decree is passed against a person he has two remedies either he may go up in appeal against the ex parte decree or he may seek to get the ex parte decree set aside by the same court". The learned advocate for the petitioner in the instant case has sought to argue from the above observation, that the two remedies are alternative and not concurrent. But in my view such argument is not (enable as the question whether the remedies are alternative or concur rent did not arise for decision by the Full Bench of Allahabad High Court in the reported case. The analogy of remedies against the ex parte decree given in the said observation shows that the concur rent nature of the remedies has not been ruled out. So far as the decisions of the Calcutta High Court are concerned the remedies against an ex parte decree are concurrent. (See (1908) 12 Cal WN 885; (1909) 13 Cal WN 846; Mulla's C. P. Code, 13th Edn. p. 813 ). The question whether the two remedies against an ex parte order of ad interim injunction are concurrent or not arose directly in Unit ed Club v. Nowhong Football Association, AIR 1964 Assam 81 and Mehrotra C. J. delivering the judgment of the Division Bench overruled the objection raised on behalf of the petitioner that the opposite party had no right to come up in appeal against an interim injunction when he had already filed objection thereto and the objection had not been finally decid ed by the learned Munsif and held as follows in paragraph 9 of the judgment ''the opposite party having known of the interim order of injunction filed ob jection and what was adjourned was the disposal of objections filed by the op posite party No. 2. But that does not deprive the opposite party of the right of appeal if he had otherwise any griev- ance against the order granting an ex parte interim injunction. After the ob jection has been disposed of the oppo site party may have a fresh right of ap peal against the order passed under Order 39, Rule 4. The fact of filing objections by the opposite party does not debar the opposite party from going up in ap- peal against, the order if the appeal is otherwise permissible.

The fact of filing objections by the opposite party does not debar the opposite party from going up in ap- peal against, the order if the appeal is otherwise permissible. "i respectfully agree "with the view ex-pressed by the Division Bench of the Assam High Court which fits in with the provisions of the Code. ( 5 ) IT may be mentioned that filing of an appeal against the order of ad interim injunction does not take away the jurisdiction of the original court to deal with the decision in controversy in any way and if the interim stay order is vacated by the appellate Court after giving both parties opportunity of being heard the original court will be free to decide the application under Order 39. Rule 4 of the Code in spite of the pendency of the appeal. The position will however, be, different after adjudication of the appeal when the original order has been superseded by the order of the appellate Court. So, there is no question of conflict of jurisdiction. The same position occurs in the case where both applications to set aside an ex parte decree and an appeal from the ex parte decree are filed by the defendant. In this connection reference may be made to the following observations of Sri Ashutosh Mookerjee, J. in Kumud Nath Ray v. Rai Jatindra Nath Chowdhury; (1911-13 Cal LJ 221) (225):"it is broadly contended however by the learned Vakil for the respondent upon the authority of expressions to be found in the judgments in Dhonai Sar-dar v. Tarak Nath. Chowdhury, (1910) 12 Cal LJ 53; Ramanadhan v. Narayan, (1904) ILR 27 Mad 602 and Shankara Bhatta v. Subraya Bhatta, (1907) ILR 30 Mad 535 that the immediate effect of the presentation of an appeal to a superior court against the decree of a subordinate court is to destroy the jurisdiction of the latter court to deal with the judgment in controversy in any way. We are not prepared to accept this proposition as well founded on principle and it is as a matter of fact, opposed to the decision of the House of Lords in Mellish v. Richardson (1832) 1 C. 1. We are not prepared to accept this proposition as well founded on principle and it is as a matter of fact, opposed to the decision of the House of Lords in Mellish v. Richardson (1832) 1 C. 1. and F 244:36 RR 111:6 ER 900 in which it was ruled that when the court would otherwise have the authority to amend the judgment it may be done after an appeal has been taken. This view is entirely inconsistent with the theory that the mere presentation of an appeal puts it beyond the power of the original court to deal, in any way with the judgment under appeal. The position is obviously different after the adjudication of the appeal when the original judgment has been superseded by the judgment of the court of appeal. Brij Narayan v. Tejbal (1910) 11 Cal LJ 560. The view we take has been adopted also in a long series of decisions in the American Courts amongst which reference may be made to Exp. Henderson (1887) 4. Southern 284 and Texes Railway Company v. Waker (1905) 87 SW 194. We must therefore adhere to the principle which underlines the decision of this Court in Damodor Manna v. Sarat Chandra. Dhal (1909) 13 Cal WN 846 and overrule the contention of the respondent that the original court could not entertain the application to set aside the ex parte de- cree presented by the appellant merely because the contesting defendant had preferred an appeal to this Court". ( 6 ) IN the instant case it is open to the appellate Court either to maintain the stay order till the disposal of the appeal and decide the appeal itself or to vacate the interim stay order to permit the learned Munsif to decide the application under Order 39 Rule 4 of the Code keeping the appeal pending. In any event, it cannot be said that the appeal does not lie merely because an application under Order 39 Rule 4 of the Code was filed by the defendant-opposite party No. 1 before preferring the appeal. In any event, it cannot be said that the appeal does not lie merely because an application under Order 39 Rule 4 of the Code was filed by the defendant-opposite party No. 1 before preferring the appeal. ( 7 ) I, therefore, hold that in the pre sent case the appeal preferred by the defendant-opposite party No. l is main tainable and the appellate court has not committed any error of jurisdiction in granting interim stay of operation of the order of ad-interim injunction to appeal till the hearing of the application for stay after notice to the plaintiff-respon dents, I may mention that the question of mainability of the suit filed by the plaintiffs has not been decided by me in this proceeding. The revisional appli cation, therefore, fails and is dismissed. No order is made as to costs.
