Girvar&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>and the second to challenge the decree dated 29.8.1992 passed by learned<\/p>\n<p>Senior Sub Judge, Gurgaon in the case of &#8216;Shanti Vs. Girwar&#8217;. Both the suits<\/p>\n<p>stand consolidated in pursuance to the order dated 4.2.2003 and the<\/p>\n<p>proceedings are being recorded in Civil Suit No.62 of 1994. The petitioner<\/p>\n<p>claims that adoption deed was executed by Girvar Singh         adopting the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner as his adopted son.\n<\/p>\n<p>             After the parties had led evidence the petitioner moved an<\/p>\n<p>application for permission to lead additional evidence. The petitioner by<\/p>\n<p>way of additional evidence wanted to produce Mutations No.731 dated<\/p>\n<p>25.5.1908, No.296 dated 26.7.1945, No. 1062 dated 9.4.1946 and Pedigree<\/p>\n<p>table of the year 1877. It was claimed that mutations are per se admissible<\/p>\n<p>as also the Pedigree table as the documents to be produced were the<\/p>\n<p>certified copies issued by the revenue authorities and are better documents.<\/p>\n<p>The petitioner also sought to produce original adoption deed duly registered<\/p>\n<p>which was produced by the petitioner in another case titled &#8216;Ravinder Vs.<\/p>\n<p>Ms.Anita Kohli and others&#8217; and the certified copy whereof has been placed<\/p>\n<p>in the said case.\n<\/p>\n<p>             The application moved by the petitioner was contested.<\/p>\n<p>             Learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), Gurgaon by way of<\/p>\n<p>impugned order partly allowed the application moved by the petitioner by<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                             3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>way of additional evidence but declined the prayer for production of<\/p>\n<p>adoption deed.\n<\/p>\n<p>            It is the case of he petitioner that after the closure of the<\/p>\n<p>evidence by the defendants the plaintiff has summoned the evidence in<\/p>\n<p>rebuttal but an application was moved by the respondent-defendants that the<\/p>\n<p>evidence sought to be led by the petitioner by way of rebuttal evidence was<\/p>\n<p>in affirmative and therefore, was not permissible by way of rebuttal<\/p>\n<p>evidence. The defendants gave up the issues burden of which was on the<\/p>\n<p>defendant-respondents to prove the said issues and in view of this the<\/p>\n<p>application moved by the defendant-respondents was accepted and the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner was not allowed to lead additional evidence. It was thereafter the<\/p>\n<p>present application was moved.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Though the application moved by the petitioner was for leading<\/p>\n<p>additional evidence, learned trial court rejected the claim of the petitioner<\/p>\n<p>by observing that as the onus of material issues was upon the plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>petitioner and he was supposed to lead evidence on these issues in<\/p>\n<p>affirmative therefore, he could not be allowed to lead evidence in rebuttal<\/p>\n<p>which is in the nature of affirmative evidence. Learned court also came to<\/p>\n<p>the conclusion that no case was made out in the application showing that<\/p>\n<p>any evidence was led by the defendants which could force the petitioner to<\/p>\n<p>lead evidence in rebuttal. Learned trial court further observed that mere<\/p>\n<p>tendering of certified copy of adoption deed was not sufficient to prove the<\/p>\n<p>factum of adoption as formal evidence is required to prove the said<\/p>\n<p>document.\n<\/p>\n<p>            As regard the prayer of the petitioner for leading additional<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                              4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>evidence to prove adoption deed was declined by observing that when a<\/p>\n<p>particular and specific issue was framed with regard to the adoption the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner was required to lead evidence in affirmative. The court also<\/p>\n<p>observed that it cannot be said that adoption deed            was not in his<\/p>\n<p>knowledge. Learned trial court thus, rejected the plea of the petitioner for<\/p>\n<p>leading additional evidence to prove the adoption deed.<\/p>\n<p>             Learned trial court, however, allowed the application with<\/p>\n<p>regard to the other documents by observing that they are public documents<\/p>\n<p>for which formal proof would not be required. The court further observed<\/p>\n<p>that he documents cannot be said to be prepared or created by the plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>petitioner by afterthought. Thus, the petitioner was allowed to lead<\/p>\n<p>additional evidence qua Mutation Nos.731 dated       25.5.1908, 296 dated<\/p>\n<p>26.7.1945, 1062 dated 9.4.1946 and Pedigree table of the year 1877 subject<\/p>\n<p>to costs of Rs.500\/- However, application for leading evidence by way of<\/p>\n<p>additional evidence to prove adoption deed stands declined.<\/p>\n<p>             Mr. Shiv Kumar, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner contended that by deletion of the provisions of Order 18 Rule<\/p>\n<p>17-A of the Code by way of amendment dated 1.7.2002 power of the court<\/p>\n<p>to permit a party to produce evidence not known to them earlier or which<\/p>\n<p>could not be produced in spite of due diligence has not been taken away as<\/p>\n<p>the said power is inbuilt.\n<\/p>\n<p>             The application is opposed by Mr.C.B.Goel, learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>appearing on behalf of the defendant-respondents.<\/p>\n<p>             Learned counsel for the respondents contended that once the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner did not lead the evidence in affirmative he could not be allowed<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                             5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>to lead evidence in rebuttal when no evidence is led on the issues by the<\/p>\n<p>defendants the onus of which is on the defendants. In support of this<\/p>\n<p>contention learned counsel for the respondents placed reliance on the<\/p>\n<p>judgment of this court in the case of Sharam Singh Vs. Gurjit Singh &amp;<\/p>\n<p>Ors. 2002 (1) CCC 665.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Learned counsel for the respondents by placing reliance on the<\/p>\n<p>judgment of this court in the case of Mehnga Singh Vs. Lal Chand and<\/p>\n<p>others 1999(2) S.L.J.,1640 contended that the learned trial court was right<\/p>\n<p>in rejecting the application as the evidence with the petitioner now intends<\/p>\n<p>to produce was very much in existence when the suit was filed and there<\/p>\n<p>was no material to establish that notwithstanding the exercise of due<\/p>\n<p>diligence the evidence could not be produced during the suit proceedings<\/p>\n<p>was not within his the knowledge. Needless to mention here that the<\/p>\n<p>judgment relied upon by the learned counsel for the respondents was with<\/p>\n<p>regard to application moved under Order 41 Rule 27 of the Code.<\/p>\n<p>            Learned counsel for the respondents thereafter placed reliance<\/p>\n<p>on the judgment of was Kulwant Singh Vs. Makhan Singh 1992 PLJ 348<\/p>\n<p>to contend that    as onus to prove adoption deed was on the plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>petitioner it was obligatory for him to produce the entire         evidence in<\/p>\n<p>affirmative. The petitioner plaintiff, therefore, has no right to rebut the<\/p>\n<p>evidence of the defendants by leading additional evidence.<\/p>\n<p>            Finally reliance was placed by the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>respondents on the judgment of Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in the case of<\/p>\n<p>Mahavir Singh &amp; Ors Vs. Naresh Chandra and another AIR 2001 SC<\/p>\n<p>134 to contend that it is not permissible for the court in exercise of powers<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                             6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>under section 115 of the Code to interfere with the order refusing additional<\/p>\n<p>evidence.\n<\/p>\n<p>            On consideration of the matter, I find force in the contentions<\/p>\n<p>raised by the learned counsel for the petitioner.\n<\/p>\n<p>            It is not in doubt that the dispute between the parties is as to<\/p>\n<p>whether the plaintiff petitioner is adopted son of Girwar Singh. It may also<\/p>\n<p>be noticed that certified copy of the adoption deed was placed on record as<\/p>\n<p>the original had been filed by the petitioner in another case titled Ravinder<\/p>\n<p>Vs. Anita Kohli and the certified copy had already been placed in the case.<\/p>\n<p>            It may be noticed that the petitioner was not negligent and had<\/p>\n<p>taken steps to bring the adoption deed on record. It can also not be disputed<\/p>\n<p>that the court has inherent power to allow additional evidence in case it is<\/p>\n<p>proved on record that notwithstanding with the due diligence the said<\/p>\n<p>evidence was not within the knowledge or could not after exercise of due<\/p>\n<p>diligence be produced by him. Inherent power also can be exercised for<\/p>\n<p>advancement of justice as the procedural rules are handmade for advancing<\/p>\n<p>justice and not to thwart the same. The court, therefore, has also power to<\/p>\n<p>allow the additional evidence in case it is proved on record that the evidence<\/p>\n<p>sought to be produced is necessary for the just and proper adjudication of<\/p>\n<p>the case and the documents sought to be produced would enable the court to<\/p>\n<p>pronounce the judgment. Additional evidence even can be allowed for any<\/p>\n<p>other substantial cause.\n<\/p>\n<p>            Once the parties are aware of the dispute between them and<\/p>\n<p>certified copy of the adoption deed already placed on record it cannot be<\/p>\n<p>said that any prejudice was likely to be caused to the respondent-defendants<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                              7<\/span><\/p>\n<p>in case the said evidence was allowed. The contention of the learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel for the respondents that the petitioner could not be permitted to lead<\/p>\n<p>evidence in rebuttal does not arise in the present case as the application for<\/p>\n<p>leading evidence in rebuttal was rejected by the learned trial court.<\/p>\n<p>             Reliance by the learned counsel for the respondents on the<\/p>\n<p>judgment of this court in the cases of   Mehnga Singh Vs. Lal Chand and<\/p>\n<p>others and Kulwant Singh Vs. Makhan Singh (supra)                   also cannot<\/p>\n<p>advance the case of the respondents as in the said cases the question<\/p>\n<p>whether the evidence sought to be produced was necessary for the just and<\/p>\n<p>proper adjudication of the case and was further required for pronouncement<\/p>\n<p>of judgment has not been considered and the decision is on the point that the<\/p>\n<p>evidence which was within the knowledge and could be produced with due<\/p>\n<p>diligence was considered.\n<\/p>\n<p>             In the present case as already observed that the documents<\/p>\n<p>sought to be produced was not in possession of the petitioner and was<\/p>\n<p>admittedly produced in court and therefore, it could not be said that in<\/p>\n<p>spite of due diligence the petitioner could have produced the said document<\/p>\n<p>in court.\n<\/p>\n<p>             As already observed present case is one where the production<\/p>\n<p>of adoption deed      goes to the very root of the matter and therefore,<\/p>\n<p>evidence sought to be produced was necessary for the pronouncement of<\/p>\n<p>judgment by the court       and therefore, the impugned order cannot be<\/p>\n<p>sustained.\n<\/p>\n<p>             The contention of the learned counsel for the respondents that<\/p>\n<p>the impugned order cannot be interfered with in revision also cannot be<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\"> CR No.2432 of 2007                                                8<\/span><\/p>\n<p>sustained as the present revision has been filed under Article 227 of the<\/p>\n<p>Constitution of India and not under section 115 of the Code.<\/p>\n<p>             Hon&#8217;ble Supreme Court in the case of Surya Dev Rai Vs. Ram<\/p>\n<p>Chander Rai AIR 2003 SC 3044 has been pleased to lay down that the<\/p>\n<p>scope of Article 227 of the Constitution of India is much wider in exercise<\/p>\n<p>of supervisory jurisdiction over its subordinate courts and the exercise of<\/p>\n<p>jurisdiction under Article 226\/227 of the Constitution cannot be tied down<\/p>\n<p>in a straightjacket formula or rigid rule. This court, therefore, in the interest<\/p>\n<p>of justice can correct an error in the judgment of its subordinate court in<\/p>\n<p>exercise of powers under Article 227of the Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>             Consequently, this revision is allowed. Order impugned is set<\/p>\n<p>aside. It is ordered that the application moved by the petitioner plaintiff for<\/p>\n<p>leading evidence stands allowed in toto. However, the petitioner shall be<\/p>\n<p>granted only one opportunity to lead evidence to prove the adoption deed.<\/p>\n<p>However, this shall be subject to payment of Rs.3000\/- as costs.<\/p>\n<pre>27.8. 2008                                    (Vinod K.Sharma)\nrp                                                 Judge\n <\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Punjab-Haryana High Court Ravinder Singh vs Parkash Singh &amp; Ors on 27 August, 2008 CR No.2432 of 2007 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.2432 of 2007 Date of Decision: 27.8.2008 Ravinder Singh ..Petitioner Vs.
