This resulted in a decree being passed by the court wherein it was stated that Chotelal could start cultivating the field from the year 2000. Whenever Chotelal and family would start cultivation of the land, Lallu Pandey would either ruin their crop or threaten them with physical violence. The victims in their despair even approached the Panchayat to solve the matter as they do not wish to get into a conflict with the Pandey family. This did not help their situation.
