Yes: to maintain same status// position as it was before filing suit.

So u can cultivate/ use if u were doing it before litigation.
Rajendra K Goyal (Expert) 14 October 2013
Status quo is a Latin term meaning the existing state of affairs. It is a commonly used form of the original Latin "statu quo" – literally "the state in which". To maintain the status quo is to keep the things the way they presently are. The related phrase status quo ante, literally "the state in which before", means "the state of affairs that existed previously".

Can we take the crop
Guest (Expert) 15 October 2013
Your question is irrelevant, when you have nowhere mentioned that you had already been cultivating the land before start of litigation.
malipeddi jaggarao (Expert) 15 October 2013
You are required to maintain the same position as regards possession reaping crops etc., as they were at the time of filing suit. You have to conclude yourself what was the exact position before filing the same and maintain the same position as per the court order till the case is decided.
