IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Regular Second Appeal No. 2860 of 2010(O&M) Date of Decision: September 19, 2011. Kartar Singh and others. ...... APPELLANT (s) Versus Angrez Singh and others. ...... RESPONDENT (s) CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAM CHAND GUPTA Present: Mr. Kanwal Goyal, Advocate for the appellants. ***** RAM CHAND GUPTA, J.(Oral) The present regular second appeal has been filed against judgment and decree dated 09.09.2009 passed by learned Additional District Judge, Muktsar partly allowing appeal filed by the present appellants- defendants against judgment and decree dated 21.12.2006 passed by learned Additional Civil Judge(Senior Division), Gidderbaha and suit filed by respondents-plaintiffs for recovery of damages was partly decreed and respondent-plaintiff, Angrez Singh was held entitled to `40,000/- as compensation. RSA No.2860 of 2010 I have heard learned counsel for the appellant and have gone through the whole record carefully including the impugned judgments passed by learned courts below. Briefly stated, respondents-plaintiffs suit for recovery of `2,00,000/- as compensation on the ground of loss suffered by respondent- plaintiff no.1 due to illegal act done by present appellants-defendants by taking law in their hands and by inflicting injuries upon respondent-plaintiff no.1 including injuries on his right eye due to which his right eye has been fully damaged. He was a farmer and that his capacity to do agricultural work has been substantially diminished. He has to employ farm labourer to assist him in the agricultural work on account of said injury. Both the courts after appreciating evidence have come to the conclusion that injury was received by respondent-plaintiff no.1 due to illegal act of respondent-defendant no.1. Learned trial Court has directed the present appellants-defendants to pay `50,000/- alongwith interest @ 6% per annum as compensation. Appeal filed by the present appellants was partly allowed and the amount of compensation was reduced to `40,000/- as `10,000/- was already paid as compensation as per order passed by this Court in pending Criminal Revision Petition against the judgment of sentence and conviction passed against the present appellant- defendant and it was also ordered that the amount of compensation would be paid to respondent-plaintiff no.1, Angrez Singh only, who has received injuries due to illegal act of appellants-defendants. Hence, in view of these facts, it cannot be said that any illegality has been committed by learned courts below in passing the impugned judgments and decrees. Finding recorded by both the courts below is fully 2 RSA No.2860 of 2010 justified by the evidence on record and is supported by cogent reasons. The said finding is not shown to be perverse or illegal nor it is based on misreading or misappreciation of the evidence. Hence, the said finding does not warrant interference in this second appeal. No question of law, much less substantial question of law, arises for determination in this second appeal. Accordingly the appeal is dismissed in limine. ( RAM CHAND GUPTA ) September 19, 2011.
