Section 101
Disputes concerning rights over land or water
Whenever a First Class Magistrate is satisfied as aforesaid that a dispute likely to cause a breach of the peace exists concerning the right to do or prevent the doing of anything in or upon any land or water situate within the local limits of his jurisdiction he may inquire into the matter and may if it appears to him that the right exists make an order permitting that thing to be done or directing that it shall not be done, as the case may be, until the person objecting to that thing being done or claiming that it may be done obtains the decision of a competent Civil Court adjudging him to be entitled to prevent the doing of or to do that thing as the case may be.
(2)
No order shall be made under this section permitting the doing of anything where the right to do that thing is exercisable at all times of the year unless the right has been exercised within three months next before the institution of the inquiry or, where the right is exercisable only at particular seasons, unless the right has been exercised during the season next before the institution of the inquiry.
