IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.5687 of 2006(O&M) Date of Decision 28.10.2009 Dropti Devi and another ...... Petitioners VERSUS Ramji Lal Singh and another ...... Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.Arun Jain, Senior Advocate with Mr.Amit Jain, Advocate, for the petitioners. None for the respondents. ***** A.N.JINDAL, J(ORAL): This petition is directed against the order dated 22.08.2006, passed by Additional District Judge, Gurgaon, accepting the appeal and setting aside the order dated 06.06.2005 passed by Civil Judge (Junior Division), Gurgaon, vide which the application of the defendants-petitioners (herein referred as 'the petitioners') under Order 9 Rule 13 C.P.C., was dismissed. Having examined the impugned order, the same does not suggest any illegality much less irregularity warranting interference at my end. Vide order dated 22.08.2006, passed by Additional District Judge, Gurgaon, the exparte decree was set aside and the matter was allowed to be decided on merits after hearing the parties. It would be apposite to observe that meritorious claims should not be allowed to go unheard. In any case, the respondents have duly established the reasons for setting aside the exparte decree. No grounds to interfere. Dismissed. (A.N.Jindal) Judge 28.10.2009 mamta-II
