Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Aug-08-2007

Reported in: 2008(2)AWC1695

Pankaj Mithal, J.1. List revised. Heard Sri Lalji Sinha learned Counsel for the appellant. No one turns up for the respondent.2. This second appeal arises from a suit for declaration. It was dismissed by the Trial Court but decreed by the lower appellate court.3. Sri Sinha raised only one point that the suit was barred by time and as such was not liable to be decreed. The cause of action for the suit had arisen on 16.5.1964 after the enforcement of the Limitation Act, 1963 (hereinafter referred to as the new Act). The time prescribed for filing the suit for declaration is only 3 years under Article 58 of the new Act. The suit was instituted in the year 1969 and as such was patently barred by time. The lower appellate court has manifestly erred in law in according the benefit of Section 30 of the new Act and treating the limitation for the suit to be 7 years from the commencement of the new Act.4.

Decided on: Aug-08-2007

Reported in: 2008(1)AWC200

ORDERAmitava Lala, J.1. The appeal was placed for disposal in the final list. Learned Counsel appearing for the appellant insurance company contended before this Court that its liability is limited as per Section 147 of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. He relied upon the judgment in National Insurance Company Limited v. Prembai Patel and Ors. JT 2005 (4) SC 399 : 2005 (3) AWC 2126 (SC). By relying upon this judgment he contended that when the liability of the insurance company is limited as per Section 147 of the Act having an effect of Workmen's Compensation Act, it is not liable to pay the entire amount of compensation.2. We have carefully gone through the judgment and find that the same point was agitated in the appropriate court on the basis of the insurance policy when the Court found that liability is limited on the basis of the insurance policy and order was passed in favour of the insurance company. In the present case, no application under Section 170 of the Act was made by the p...

Reported in: 2008(2)AWC1694

Amitava Lala, J.1. The petitioners contended before this Court that they were guarantors in taking Bank loan by the respondent no.4. Therefore, in view of the ratio of the judgment reported in 2006 (10) AD J 52 (SC) Ashok Mahajan v. State of U.P. and Ors. the borrower have to be dealt with first before taking any action against the guarantor.2. We find from the aforesaid judgment that the alleged unpaid term loan amount is arising out of the Pradeshiya Industrial and Investment Corporation, Uttar Pradesh Limited (PICUP). The proceeding was initiated ultimately against the guarantor under Section 9 of the State Financial Act, 1951. The Supreme Court observed that Sections 3 & 4 of the Uttar Pradesh Public Moneys (Recovery of Dues) Act, 1972, as referred therein, clearly speak that the authority can not proceed against the guarantor until the property of the principal debtor is firstly sold of for the purpose of recovery of the dues. However, upon making such observation the matter was r...
