THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. CHANDRA KUMAR Civil Revision Petition No. 722 of 2010 Order: This revision petition is filed challenging the order dated 12.10.2007 passed in I.A. No. 635 of 2007 in O.S. No.69 of 2006 by the Junior Civil Judge, Ichapuram, permitting the Branch Manager of the plaintiff company to give evidence. The first respondent herein, which is the chit fund company, filed the suit in O.S. No.69 of 2006 for recovery of money due under a chit. Subsequently, the said chit fund company filed I.A. No.635 of 2007, under Rule 32 of the Civil Rules of Practice and Section 151 and Order VII Rule 14(3) of CPC, seeking permission to examine its Branch Manager, namely Mr. Pratap Sahu on its behalf. The lower Court allowed the said application, by impugned order dated 12.10.2007. Mr. Pratap Sahu has stated in his affidavit that the plaintiff company, through its authorization dated 19.05.2005, permitted him to give evidence. The only contention of the learned counsel for the revision petitioner is that when the original suit was filed by the plaintiff company represented by its Senior Manager K. Pavan Kumar, now the plaintiff cannot examine Mr. Pratap Sahu, the Branch Manager on its behalf. The only point that arises for consideration is whether the impugned order is sustainable or not? Admittedly, the first respondent/plaintiff is a chit fund company. There may be change in the office of Manager or Senior Manager. The same person may not continue to work under the chit fund company for ever. Therefore, as and when there is a change in the office of the Branch Manager, the chit fund company has to examine the person who is now dealing with the matters. Therefore, I do not see any illegality or irregularity in the order passed by the lower Court permitting the Branch Manager of the plaintiff company to give evidence. The CRP is devoid of merit and the same is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the CRP is dismissed. However, in the circumstances, no costs. ___________________ B. CHANDRA KUMAR, J.
