IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.5212 of 2009 Date of decision : 05-07-2010 Harish Kumar .... Petitioner VERSUS Amrit Lal and another ....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Ms. Preeti Khanna, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Jasbir Rattan, Advocate, for respondent no.1. KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA, J. (Oral) Counsel for the petitioner has prayed in alternate that she will be satisfied, in case, evidence is recorded by the Appellate Authority itself instead of relegating the same to the trial Court/Rent Controller. Sh. Jasbir Rattan, Advocate for respondent no.1 has opposed this prayer on the ground that the witnesses will have to come from Dhuri to Sangrur. Appellate Authority had granted only one opportunity to each party. The distance between Dhuri to Sangrur is 15-16 Kms. The distance being not very long, it will be better that Appellate Authority itself see the demeanour of the witnesses. Therefore, impugned order dated 19.8.2009 is modified to the extent that the evidence shall be recorded by the Appellate Authority. Disposed of. (KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA) 05-07-2010 JUDGE manju
