5. It is brought to the notice by the learned Counsel for the Petitioner/third party in the E.P that the Slum Clearance Board/D-2 had filed written statement denying each and every averments in the Plaint and stating that the Plaintiff had not approached the Court with clean hands. In the same written statement, it has been clearly stated that the first Defendant is in the occupation of the premises, the Suit property in O.S.No.1398/2005 as allotted by the Slum Clearance Board. Therefore, the Plaintiff cannot seek such declaration. However, after amendment of the Plaint by the Plaintiff, the Suit was decreed. The Petitioner herein who is in enjoyment of the Plot No.288 had suffered a decree behind her back by ulterior motive or abuse of process of Court by the Plaintiff in O.S.No.1398/2005.
Therefore, when the Petitioner came to know about the Execution Proceedings, she had filed E.A. No.02/2023 to attach her valuable right by impleading herself in the Execution Proceedings. The learned Counsel for the Revision Petitioner had invited the attention of this Court to the Order of the learned XXV Assistant Judge, City Civil Court, Chennai, observing as follows: "E.P.No.633/2016 - Petition filed by abstructors checked and found defects.

Further the bailiff stated the said obstruct or Parvathy has gave objection letter along with copy of Adhar card, Ration Card, Water tax Card and E.P card.
