Preventive relief how granted
s 50
Preventive relief is granted at the discretion of the court by injunction, temporary or perpetual.
Specific Relief Act 1950 Chapter IX — Of injunctions generally
Temporary and perpetual injunctions
s 51
(1) Temporary injunctions are such as are to continue until a specified time, or until the further order of the court. They may be granted at any period of a suit, and are regulated by the law relating to civil procedure. (2) A perpetual injunction can only be granted by the decree made at the hearing and upon the merits of the suit; the defendant is thereby perpetually enjoined from the assertion of a right, or from the commission of an act, which would be contrary to the rights of the plaintiff.
