Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-21-1989

Reported in: [1989(59)FLR821]; (1994)IIILLJ507MP

V.D. Gyani, J.1 This is an appeal against acquittal. The accused respondent was convicted by the trial Court (Chief Judicial Magistrate, Indore) under Section 85(g) of the Employees' State Insurance Act and sentenced to pay a fine of Rs. 300 or in default to undergo one year's simple imprisonment. On appeal, the then Eighth Additional Sessions Judge, Indore, set aside conviction and acquitted the accused-respondent of the charges. The Corporation has now come in appeal against acquittal.2. Sri Behl learned counsel for the appellant urged that the lower appellate Court erred in not considering the fact that sanction order was very much on record and the accused could not have been acquitted on that ground. Going through the impugned order, it is clear that this was the ground which mainly weighed with the learned Judge, in acquitting the accused. The other reason for acquittal assigned by the learned Judge is that the prosecution led no evidence to prove that the accused was the managin...

Shri Ramjanki Mandir Trust and anr. Vs. State of Madhya Pradesh and or ...

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-17-1989

Reported in: AIR1990MP41

T.N. Singh, J. 1. On 15-1-1985, the Sub-Divisional Officer, Ater, in District Bhind, passed an order (Annexure A/3) constituting a trust in respect of 'Shri Ram-janki Mandir' and also appointed 'Trustees', evidently exercising his powers under the Madhya Pradesh Public Trusts Act, 1951, for short, the 'Act'. By subsequent order passed on 3-7-1986 (Annexure A/9), he made changes in the Register in respect of entries concerning the names of Trustees earlier appointed. His subsequent action and the order passed by him in exercise of his powers under Section 9 of the Act are challenged on the Writ side before us. 2. What appears clear on the face of Annexure A/3 is that steps to constitute the Trust were taken by the S.D.O. in pursuance of the direction made in that regard by Collector, Bhind, in his order passed on 11-4-1983 in Revenue Appeal No. 13/81-82. That order is also on record. That is Annexure R/1 of return of respondents Nos. 1 to 3. They are, State of Madhya Pradesh through the...

The revisionist/wife Smt. Maya Gohiya has brought an action against her husband Premlal under section 13 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (for short the 'Act') for seeking a decree of divorce on the ground of cruelty etc. It is contended that her husband Premlal is not capable of performing sexual act with his wife Smt.

Facts of this case are more or less settled.

Union of India (Uoi) Vs. S.C. Saxena and anr.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-06-1989

Reported in: 1990ACJ744

T.N. Singh, J. 1. A short and simple, but important question of law has come up for our decision in this matter, indeed, that too on admitted facts.2. A railway accident took place on 16.5.1978 and admittedly, respondent No. 1 was travelling by that train which was involved in that accident. Admittedly also, the compartment in which he was travelling was damaged in the accident and for loss suffered by him on account of his goods being damaged which he was carrying with him in the compartment in which he was travelling, he lodged a claim, as contemplated under the Railways Act. That claim was allowed in toto in the sum of Rs. 31,015/-. However, on that, a lump sum deduction of 25 per cent was made. The dispute, on the other hand, in this petition, raised by the railway authorities is with regard to a single item for which compensation in the sum of Rs. 20,000/- has been allowed to the claimant-respondent. For two numbers of photometers (AOMIL make) that compensation was allowed.3. The ...

State of Madhya Pradesh Vs. Navalkishor Mangilal and anr.

Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-03-1989

Reported in: 1990MPLJ412

T.N. Singh, J.1. On admitted facts, defendant/appellant has raised a short, but important question of law in this second appeal. Decrees passed by two Courts below, it is contended, suffer jurisdictional incompetence and must be set aside on that account.2. In the opening paragraph of its judgment, the lower appellate Court has focussed on the crux of the controversy. The four-fold entitlement of the plaintiffs accepted by the trial Court in passing decree in that regard is set out. In title suit No. 78/81 which plaintiffs had instituted for defendant's eviction from the suit-house, a preliminary decree was passed on 9-4-1965 directing, inter alia, that defendant should hand over vacant possession of the suit house to the plaintiffs latest by 8-7-1965 and that on possession being so delivered to the plaintiffs, they would be entitled to pray for mesne profits on paying court-fees in that regard and obtain decree for that on enquiry into their claim in that regard being completed.2-A.
