Civil Revision No.7302 of 2009 1 In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, at Chandigarh. Civil Revision No.7302 of 2009 Date of Decision: 19.7.2010 Rakesh Mago and Another …Petitioners Versus M/s Ganesh Rubber Industries …Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA. Present: Mr. Arun Bakshi, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Puneet Jindal, Advocate for the respondent. Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia, J. (Oral) The respondent/plaintiff filed a suit for recovery of an amount of Rs.17,84,325/-. During the pendency of the suit, on 10.3.2009, he made a statement under Order 10 Rule 1 CPC. Thereafter, an application was filed by the petitioner/defendant that the statement of the plaintiff, so recorded, be made admissible. At that stage, an application under Section 151 CPC was filed by the respondent/plaintiff that he permitted to make a detailed statement. This application was allowed by the Court of Civil Judge (Senior Division), Jalandhar, vide its order dated 16.9.2009, which has been impugned in the present revision petition. Before the validity of the impugned order dated 16.9.2009 could be examined, the respondent/plaintiff had already made detailed Civil Revision No.7302 of 2009 2 statement on 23.10.2009. In the present revision petition, it has been prayed that impugned order dated 16.9.2009 be set aside and statement (Annexure P5) subsequently made on 23.10.2009 be excluded from consideration. After taking into consideration the submissions made by learned counsel for the parties, this Court is of the view that as and when the respondent/plaintiff steps into the witness box, both the statements being previous statements can be used to confront him. Hence, no interference is warranted in the present revision petition as in pursuance of impugned order dated 16.9.2009, the respondent/plaintiff had already made his statement on 23.10.2009. With the observations made above, the present revision petition is disposed of. (Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia) Judge July 19, 2010 “DK”
