Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in reversing the concurrent findings of fact regarding the name of the plaintiff's father, which was established as Batti Lal based on evidence from the trial Court and the first appellate Court. The Court emphasized that in a second appeal, the High Court cannot interfere with factual findings unless there is a substantial question of law. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order and restored the findings of the lower courts, allowing the appeal.
