Grandhi Venkataramarao Vs. State of Andhra Pradesh

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jan-28-1992

Reported in: 1992(3)ALT306

ORDER1. This criminal revision is filed against the Judgment in Crl.A. No. 142/90 dt. 3-12-90 on the file of the Sessions Judge, Guntur.This is a case of adulteration wherein the accused was convicted and punished for an offence under Section 16(1)(a)(i) read with Section 7(i) and (2) (ia) and (m) of the P.F.A. Act. The learned Counsel for the petitioner relied upon a judgment of this Court in Abdul Gafoor v. State of A.P., 1986 (2) ALT 405 and contended that mixing a little of castor oil with groundnut oil does not amount to adulteration under Section 16(a)(i) but attracts Second proviso to Section 16. In that case the learned Judge held as follows:-'It is a matter of common knowledge that castor oil in limited doses is consumed though not as a drug. It can, therefore, safely be concluded that the second proviso to Section 16 is attracted to the facts of this case inasmuch as mixing a little quantity of castor oil with groundnut oil does not amount to adulteration within the meaning o...

ORDERBhaskar Rao, J.1. These two writ petitions assail the selection and appointment of Dr. Tarun Bikar Lahiri and Dr. Rajendra Prasad Singh (respondents 3 in both the writ petitions) as Directors made by the National Institute of Rural Development (hereinafter referred to as 'NIRD') on different grounds. Before adverting to the grounds of challenge, I intend to first dispose of the preliminary objection taken by Mr. V.V.S. Rao, the learned counsel for NIRD, that this Court has no jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India to entertain the instant writ petitions as NIRD is not a 'State' within the definition of Article 12 of the Constitution of India.Article 12 of the Constitution reads:'12. Definition.-In this Part, unless the context otherwise requires, 'the State' includes the Government and Parliament of India and the Government and the Legislature of each of the States and all local or other authorities within the territory of India or under the control of the Gov...

ORDERImmaneni Panduranga Rao, J.1. This revision petition is filed by the Plaintiff challenging the order of the learned District Munsif, Ibrahimpatnam rejecting the request of the petitioner/ plaintiff to permit him to file the photostat copy of the agreement of sale as secondary evidence. Normally no doubt photostat copy cannot be admitted in evidence. But in this case the original agreement of sale was sent by the court to the Sub-Registrar, Ibrahimpatnam to find out the valuation of the suit property and to impound the document. The Sub-Registrar, after issuing so many reminders, reported to the Court that the document was lost.2. Thereupon the plaintiff filed I.A. No. 94/89 requesting the Court to permit him to file the photostat copy of the agreement of sale as secondary evidence.

ORDERPanduranga Rao, J.1. The short submission made by the learned counsel for the revision petitioner/ J. Dr. relying upon a Division Bench decision of our High Court in K. Appa Rao v. J. Venkanna, 1969 (2) APLJ 475 is that without filing a Succession certificate, it is not open to the legal representative to be impleaded as second decree holder in the execution petition basing upon a will dt.7-5-83.2. The Division Bench held that the language employed in Section 244(i)(b) (of Indian Succession Act) is plain and clear enough to indicate that no Court shall proceed to execute a decree upon an application by a person claiming to be entitled thereto on succession and that it is not open to the petitioner to apply for execution of the decree obtained by his father without obtaining and producing a succession certificate as he claimed by succession and not by survivorship. In that case the decree holder died some time after 15-2-62 and thereafter his son claiming to have become entitled to...
