Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the High Court's order regarding the remand of a case under the U.P. Tenancy Act, specifically addressing the need for the Original Authority to frame an additional issue concerning the compromise decree under Section 59 of the Act. The Court held that the Original Authority must allow parties to present further evidence, contrary to the High Court's directive to decide based solely on existing material. The Court emphasized the necessity for timely resolution, reiterating that the proceedings should be concluded within six months.
