1 S.B.Criminal Revision Petition No.26/2008 Rajendra Singh v. State of Rajasthan Date of Order :: 10th January, 2008 HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE GOVIND MATHUR Mr. M.K.Garg, for the petitioner. Mr. Ashok Upadhyay, Public Prosecutor. .... By this revision petition a challenge is given to the order dated 4.12.2007 passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Bali making an order to summon Gopal Lal, Dharam Chand, Jitendra Kumar and Niranjan Pratap Singh as prosecution witnesses. The contention of counsel for the petitioner is that summoning of abovenamed persons is not at all essential for a just decision but shall delay the trial as prosecution has already completed its evidence. I have examined the order impugned. Learned Additional Sessions Judge while accepting the application under Section 311 Cr.P.C. considered all aspects of the matter and reached at the conclusion that recording of evidence by the persons named above is essential to the just decision of the case. A trial court is having ample power to 2 summon material witness at any stage of trial if that is essential to the just decision of the case. A broad discretion, thus, is available to the court. The discretion exercised in present case is based on adequate material and in no way the order impugned is perverse. As such, no interference in revisional jurisdiction of this Court is warranted. Accordingly, the revision petition is dismissed. ( GOVIND MATHUR ),J. Kkm/ps.
