An injunction is a preventive equitable relief preserving the subject-matter in dispute intact until rights are finally determined on merit.

The Court exercises judicial discretion by evaluating: (1) Prima facie arguable case, (2) Irreparable injury, and (3) Balance of convenience.

When immediate unauthorized demolition or dispossession is imminent, courts grant ex-parte ad-interim injunctions pending show-cause notice hearing.

Under Order 39 Rule 2A CPC, deliberate violation of an injunction order is punishable with civil imprisonment up to 6 months and property attachment.

Requires land registration deeds, khatians, municipal tax receipts, Dakhilas, and verified affidavit under Order 19 CPC.

Orders refusing or granting injunction are appealable before the District Judge under Order 43 Rule 1(r) CPC, with further revisional jurisdiction in the High Court Division under Section 115 CPC.
