4. The learned District Munsif, Thuraiyoor has rightly dismissed the application holding that by appointing the Advocate Commissioner, the plaintiffs are trying to gather evidence to substantiate their case and the report of the Commissioner will not be useful to declare that the partition deed is unenforceable.
5. It is settled principle that for the relief of permanent injunction, the factum of possession has to be gone into.
6. The Commissioner cannot be appointed to find out the factum of possession and the same has to be proved by the oral and documentary evidences and the plaintiffs cannot seek for appointment of an Advocate Commissioner to gather evidence. Being the suit for permanent injunction, the Commissioner cannot be appointed to find out who is in possession of the suit properties. The order of the learned District Munsif, Thuraiyoor in dismissing the application does not suffer from any material irregularity and the same is confirmed.
7. In fine, this Civil Revision Petition is dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is closed. Sd/- Assistant Regsitrar(RTI) /True Copy/ Sub-Assistant Registrar To The District Munsif Court, Thuraiyoor.
