Daropti & Ors vs Harphool Singh (D) Thr.Lrs. & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's decision to allow an appeal without providing an opportunity for hearing to the Petitioners/ Plaintiffs was improper and violated principles of natural justice. The Court emphasized that both parties must be heard before a judgment is rendered, thereby setting aside the High Court's order and remanding the case for fresh disposal. The Court did not express any opinion on the merits of the case, ensuring all contentions remain open for consideration.
