Reported in: AIR2002Delhi335; 97(2002)DLT303; 2002(62)DRJ314

Devinder Gupta, J.1. From a perusal of the impugned Order it is at once evident that the Learned Single Judge had devisedthe scheme of furnishing a copy of the questions proposed to be asked from the Defendant, with a view toconcluding his cross-examination with expedition.2. However salutary that objective may be, it appears to us to be legally unchartered, and destructive of the verypurpose of cross-examination. This purpose has been succinctly stated in Meer Sujad Ali v. Kashee Nath, 6WR 181, where it has been observed that 'a skillful interrogation may produce by art that which usuallyhappens accidentally'. In Sarkar on Evidence, Fifteenth Edition 1999 Volume 2, it is opined that -'cross-examination is directed to (1) the credibility of the witness; (2) the facts to which he had deposed inchief, including the cross-examiner's version thereof; and (3) the facts to which the witness has not deposedbut to which the cross-examiner thinks he is able to depose. The object of cross-examin...

Maggon who has filed the present suit as the power-of-attorney does not state that it was executed before a Notary Public nor does it bear any authentication by a Notary Public. It is pertinent to mention here that along with the suit a power of attorney was filed which was not notarised and a fresh power of attorney was filed on 29.7.2000 along with application for issuing summons for judgment.3. Section 85 of Indian Evidence Act postulates that the court shall presume that every document purporting to be power of attorney and to have been executed before, and authenticated by, a Notary Public or any court, Judge, Magistrate, (Indian) Consul or Vice Consul or representative of the Central Government, was s...
