Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's decision to allow Regular Second Appeal No. 1053 of 1981 without framing a substantial question of law violated Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court emphasized that a substantial question of law must be identified before proceeding with a second appeal. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's judgment and remitted the case for reconsideration in accordance with the law.
