Sections 54 & 55 read with Order 21 of the Civil Procedure Code

Civil court is empowered Under sections 54 & 55 read with Order 21 of the Civil Procedure Code to adopt coercive method to execute a civil decree. The petitioner had given an undertaking to produce the judgment debtor as and when required but he has failed to fulfill the said undertaking.
When the judgments and orders of courts are not implemented, they simply become a paper decree and would lose its legal value which creates insurmountable difficulties, not only for the courts but also for the decree holder as well, who has got a lawful right and has submitted himself to the jurisdiction of court without taking the law into his own hands. If his trust and confidence is not honoured it would get shatter and that would further weaken the social fabric of the society.
