Civil Revision No.6595 of 2008 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.6595 of 2008 Date of Decision:06.07.2009 Dr.Hans Raj Ranga s/o Sh.Chhote Ram .....Petitioner versus Mehtab Singh son of Om Parkash and others .....Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR MITTAL. Present: Mr.Sanjeev Gupta, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr.Vineet Chaudhary, Advocate, for respondent No.1. Mr.N.K.Khosla, Advocate, for respondent Nos.2 and 3. **** AJAY KUMAR MITTAL, J.(Oral) In this revision petition filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has prayed for setting aside the order dated 04.09.2008 (Annexure P-1) passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Chandigarh, whereby his application for summoning the witness from the office of the Accountant General, Haryana, Chandigarh, along with the original bills, has been declined. Learned counsel for the petitioner has drawn the attention of the Court to the impugned order dated 04.09.2008 whereby the prayer of the petitioner for summoning the witness from the office of the Accountant General, Haryana, Chandigarh, along with the original bills, was declined only on the basis of supposition that generally the people raise inflated Civil Revision No.6595 of 2008 2 bills and since the petitioner has already been reimbursed the medical bills to the tune of Rs.2,00,000/- against the bills amounting to Rs.4,00,000/-, there was no need to summon the record from the office of the Accountant General, Haryana, Chandigarh, along with the original bills therefrom. After perusing the impugned order dated 04.09.2008, I find that the observation of the Tribunal that in the motor accident claims cases, the people generally raise inflated bills is based on conjectures and surmises and the order declining the prayer of the petitioner on assumption or presumption is unsustainable. Accordingly, the present revision petition is allowed and the order dated 04.09.2008 is quashed to the extent whereby the petitioner had been disallowed to summon the witness from the office of the Accountant General, Haryana, Chandigarh, along with the original bills.
