Civil Revision No.2248 of 2009 [ 1 ] IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH ... Civil Revision No.2248 of 2009 Decided on : July 13, 2009 Siri Ram ... Petitioner VERSUS Mukhtiar Singh and others ... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.J.S.Puri, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.K.D.Sachdeva, Advocate for respondents No.1,2,3,5 and 6. A.N.JINDAL, J.- Siri Ram – plaintiff/ petitioner (herein referred as `the petitioner') has challenged the order dated 15.12.2008 (Annexure P-1) passed by Civil Judge (Jr.Divn.) Patiala dismissing his application for additional evidence. The case is now stated to have been fixed for evidence of the defendants. Heard. The petitioner wants to prove the allotment letter, vide which the Plot No.112 was allotted to his fore-fathers, along with its site plan. It is pleaded that this document could not be produced due to inadvertence. However, copy of the said document is already on the file. Civil Revision No.2248 of 2009 [ 2 ] The dispute allegedly involves the same property, for which the allotment letter is sought to be produced. As such, the prayer of the petitioner appears to be just and essential for proper adjudication of the controversy. Without commenting on the validity of the allotment letter and whether if it relates to the suit property, it is observed that the petitioner cannot be denied his right to bring on record the documentary evidence, which is about hundred years old and copy of which is already on the record and the respondent could be compensated with costs. Under these circumstances, this petition is allowed and the petitioner – plaintiff is permitted to lead additional evidence to prove the allotment letter, subject to payment of Rs.5,000/- as costs. However, the Trial Court shall not grant him time beyond three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. July 13, 2009 ( A.N.JINDAL ) `gian' JUDGE
