IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CR No.3420 of 2011 (O&M) Date of Decision: 23.05.2011. Satbir Singh . . . Petitioner Versus Rupinder Singh and another …Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE RAKESH KUMAR JAIN Present: Ms. Anju Sharma Kaushik, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** Rakesh Kumar Jain, J (Oral) This revision petition is directed against the order dated 21.04.2011 by which the learned Rent Controller, Ludhiana has assessed the provisional rent to the tune of Rs.2,34,805/-. Learned counsel for the petitioner argues that the petitioner had paid a sum of Rs.1,792/- by way of a cheque dated 05.04.2005 which was duly accounted for and the other amount has been paid in cash, but there is no receipt except for a memorandum which has not been signed by the landlord. All these questions are disputed questions of facts which cannot be adjudicated at this stage especially when the probative value of the manual receipts, which have been relied upon by the tenant, is yet to be determined after taking into account the other evidence which is to be led by the parties. Insofar as the cheque is concerned, it has been mentioned by the Manager of the Punjab National Bank that it has been passed on 06.04.2009 from which the learned Rent Controller has taken a view that the cheque which has been issued in the year 2005 could not have been passed in the year 2009 as the validity of a cheque is only for six months. In view of the aforesaid finding, I do not find any merit in the present revision petition and as such, the same is hereby dismissed in limine, however, without any order as to costs.
