Accordingly, notice was issued to both the parties and recorded the evidence of witnesses. The first party examined three witnesses and the opposite party also examined four witnesses. After hearing both the sides, the learned SDM, Dhakuakhana comes to the findings that the D/L is a private land as per land record, which is situated on a part of land covered by Dag No. 305 of PP No. 46 of Ghatapara map under Machkhowa Mouza, as such the section 133 Cr.P.C is not applicable and asked the parties to maintain peace and tranquility in the locality under section 107 Cr.P.C vide order dated 12.10.2015 in case No. 2/2015. 5. Being aggrieved and dissatisfied with the order of the learned SDM, Dhakuakhana, the present petitioner preferred a revision before the learned Sessions Judge, Lakhimpur which was also dismissed by order dated 14.03.2016 6. Now the present petition has been preferred challenging the findings of the Ld. revisional court dated 14.03.2016 in criminal petition No. 26(4) 2016. 7. I have heard argument of learned counsel for petitioner and the learned counsel for the state but none appears for the respondents. 8. During the course of hearing learned counsel for the petitioner Mr. P. Buragohain has contended that the learned court below committed great irregularity/illegality in passing the impugned order dated 14.03.2016 both the facts and as well as in law and as such the same is bad in law and liable to be quashed and set aside. 9. On the next it is contended that the public road in question come into existence in the year of 1971 and it is established fact that the same road being used by the local community at large including both the parties. The learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the impugned order passed by the court below is absolutely illegal and cannot be sustained in the eye of law. It is also submitted that the report submitted by the police indicates the land in question was being used as a public way and as such there was no occasion for rejecting the application under section 133 Cr.PC. Moreover, existence of the alternative road is not bar for not removing the public nuisance. It is also submitted that the report submitted by the police indicates the land in question was being used as a public way and as such there was no occasion for rejecting the application under section 133 Cr.PC. Moreover, existence of the alternative road is not bar for not removing the public nuisance. Further it contends only because the road is not shown in the official document as a public road in the municipal records, it shall make not any difference, in as much as it has been found that the road is being used by the people of the locality for which the same has acquired a public character, even if it is not the public road the same cannot be obstructed by the opposite party. 10. Heard Mr. Kalita, learned Addl. P.P for the state/respondent according to him the order passed by the court calls for no interference as it is a well reasoned order appreciating the oral as well as documentary evidence. 11. From perusal of the impugned order it appears that the both the parties adduced evidence in support of the respective claims and it emerges from the matters on record that the land in question was used as a path prior to the construction of new road in 2012-2013 under the MNREGA Scheme by the Panchyat and Rural Development Department. The learned SDM, Dhakuakhana also observed the disputed land is a private land as per Land Record i.e Jamabandi and Chitha and a part of the land covered by Dag No. 305 of P.P. No. 46 of Ghatapara under Machkhowa mouza. 12. From the evidence it also appears that the road in question was constructed by the 2nd party on their land to go to their paddy field which was also used by the 1st party and other four families but they are not parties to the complain submitted by the 1st party. As appears from the evidence of P.W.2 who is one of the complainant and the father of the P.W.1, that there is no existence of the disputed road in the old map. From the evidence of P.W.1 it is found that they have alternate road to their residence and the 2nd party have sacrificed some land for construction of the new road and all the five families can use the new road for their ingress and aggress. 13. From the evidence of P.W.1 it is found that they have alternate road to their residence and the 2nd party have sacrificed some land for construction of the new road and all the five families can use the new road for their ingress and aggress. 13. D.W 2 Dipak Chamua who is one of the opposite party of the proceeding also not denied about the existence of the old road. But as per his version as they have sacrificed some land for the new road for which land is reduced hence they have closed the old road. 14. In the backdrop of the facts, it is to be seen whether the petitioner has the right of way on the disputed road in question and whether a proceeding under section 133 Cr.P.C is tenable/maintainable in the eye of law. 15. Let us reproduce some relevant portion of the order of the learned Trial Court as below: “The D/L (i:e is the disputed land) is a private land as per the land record (i:e Jammabandi and Chitha) as per the land record the disputed land is situated on a part of the land covered by 305 of periodic Patta No. 46 of Ghatapara Map under Machkhowa Mouza, which reveals Section 133 Cr.PC is not applicable in this proceeding. Hence the case is to be prosecuted under section 107 Cr.PC and as per the police report, it is found that there was apprehension of breach of peace in the locality. …………… …………… It reveals from the statement of the witnesses or prosecution side that the road was used by the 1st party as well as the 2nd party also. The alternate I:e the road new road was constructed in the year 2012-13 under MGNREGA by the Panchayat and Rural Development and after construction of the new road the disputed land has been closed by the 2nd party resulting problem to the 1st party. The alternate I:e the road new road was constructed in the year 2012-13 under MGNREGA by the Panchayat and Rural Development and after construction of the new road the disputed land has been closed by the 2nd party resulting problem to the 1st party. On the other hand, from the statement of the defence side it is found that disputed road is constructed by the 2nd party on private land belong to the 2nd party to go to their paddy filed, from the construction of the disputed road, the 2nd party made it free to use for all till 03.01.2015 But after 3 years opening the alternative road which is very suitable for the 1st party, the disputed road was closed by the 2nd party.” 16. The section 133 Cr.P.C reads as follows- “Section 133. Conditional order for removal of nuisance-(1) Whenever a District Magistrate or Sub-divisional Magistrate or any other Executive specially empowered in this behalf by the State Government, on receiving the report of a police officer or other information and on taking such evidence (if any) as he thinks fit, considers-(a) that any unlawful obstruction or nuisance should be removed from any public place or from any way, river or channel which is or may be lawfully used by public; or (b)…………………………………………………………………………….. (c) …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………” 17. Thus from the plain reading of the section shows that the section 133 Cr.P.C comes into play only when there is unlawful obstruction or nuisance on the way. If the obstruction is lawful no proceeding under section 133 of Cr.PC can be maintained. In the present case, the public had no access to the premises in question and it was included in the private land, and this lead us to a question whether the respondents had the right to use the premises by a right, either by admission, uses or otherwise and whether a proceeding under section 133 Cr.P.C is maintainable in the eye of law? 18. Accordingly, a proceeding under section 133 Cr.P.C can be drawn only when there is an unlawful obstruction on the way and it is not necessary that the disputed road/land must belong to the Government or to Public. In such a proceeding it is required to establish that the public of the locality has the right to access to that of the private road and that the obstruction was unlawful. In such a proceeding it is required to establish that the public of the locality has the right to access to that of the private road and that the obstruction was unlawful. If the obstruction was not unlawful, the provision of section 133 Cr.P.C is not attracted. 19. In the present case from the evidence it appears that the path in question was constructed by the opposite party on their land for their convenience to go to the paddy field. The 1st party and other four family of the locality also used that same to go to their house and not by the public at large. But as the new road is constructed, the opposite party closed the road which was constructed by them over their land as required for their use. From the evidence it also appears that the opposite parties have sacrificed their land for the new road. There appeared no evidence of access to the land by the persons at large at the locality by a right, admission uses or otherwise. Admittedly the land is shown as a private land in the Govt. record like Chitha and Jammabandi. In view of the matter this court is considered view that obstruction if any cannot be said to be an unlawful one and as such provision of section 133 Cr.PC have no application on the land in question. The learned trial court as well as the revisonal court has rightly decide the matter that only the provision of section 107 Cr.PC is applicable in the facts situation. 20. Consequently I find no any illegality and or irregularity in the impugned order passed by the revisional court which has upheld the order of the court below. I find no any merit in the application and same is accordingly dismissed. 21. Return the LCR along with a copy of this judgment to the court below.
