Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the High Court's order regarding the remand of a case under the U.P. Tenancy Act, stating that while the Original Authority must frame an additional issue concerning the compromise decree under Section 59, it is unjustified to restrict parties from leading further evidence. The Court emphasized the need for a fair hearing and directed that the case should be disposed of within six months. The holding reinforces the principle of allowing parties to present their evidence in proceedings.
