                                Writ petition challenging an appellate court's order regarding an injunction and the withdrawal of compensation. The dispute arises from ancestral properties owned by Baburao Kanhu Dahatonde, with plaintiffs claiming rights to specific properties and a share in compensation awarded to defendants. Legal issues include the maintainability of an independent suit for compensation under the Land Acquisition Act and the application of Hindu Succession Act amendments. The appellate court partially allowed the injunction on property alienation but refused it on compensation withdrawal, directing defendants to preserve plaintiffs' property share pending final resolution.
