Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in setting aside the decisions of the lower Courts without framing a substantial question of law as required under Section 100 of the Civil Procedure Code. The Court emphasized that the High Court must comply with the procedural requirements of Section 100 before deciding on appeals. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's decision and directed it to dispose of the second appeal in accordance with the provisions of Section 100, without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case.
