Good cause, sufficient case Difference
Good cause, sufficient case Difference, The differ-ence between the words 'good cause' for non-appearance in O. IX, R. 7 and 'sufficient cause' for the same purpose in O. IX, R. 13 as pointing to different criteria of 'goodness' or 'sufficiently' for succeeding in the two proceedings; and as there-fore furnishing a ground for the inapplicability of the rule of res judicata. As this ground was not seriously mentioned before us, we need not examine it in any detail but we might observe that we do not see any material difference between the facts to be established for satisfying the two tests of 'good cause' and 'sufficient cause'. We are unable to conceive of a 'good cause' which is not 'sufficient' as affording an explanation for non-appearance, nor conversely of a 'sufficient cause' which is not a good one and we would add that either of these is not different 'good and sufficient cause' which is used in this context in other statutes. If, on the other hand, there is any difference bet...

Hindu
Hindu, The historical and etymological genesis of the word 'Hindu' has given rise to a controversy amongst ideologists; but the view generally accepted by scholars appears to be that the word 'Hindu' is derived from the river Sindhu otherwise known as Indus which flows from the Punjab. 'That part of the great Aryan race', says Monier Williams, 'which immigrated from Central Asia, through the mountain passes into India, settled first in the districts near the river Sindhu (now called the Indus). The Persians pronounced this word Hindu and named their Aryan brethren Hindus. The Greeks, who probably gained their first ideas of India from the Persians, dropped the hard aspirate, and called the Hindus 'Indoi'. ('Hindulsm' by Monler Williams, p.1.)'. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, Vol. VI, has described 'Hinduism' as the title applied to that form of religion which prevails among the vast majority of the present population of the Indian Empire (p. 686). As Dr. Radhakrishnan has obs...
Repugnancy
Repugnancy, between the two pieces of legislation, means that conflicting results are produced when both laws are applied to the same set of facts. Repugnancy arises when the provisions of both laws are fully inconsistent or are absolutely irreconcilable and that it is impossible to obey without disobeying the other. Repugnancy would arise when conflicting results are produced when both the statutes covering the same field are applied to a given set of facts, Vijay Kumar Sharma v. State of Karnataka, (1990) 2 SCC 562 (602): AIR 1990 SC 2072. See also AIR 1959 SC 648 (665). [Constitution of India, Art. 254]Repugnancy, denotes the contradictory of each other, said of clauses, Will, etc., A Dictionary of Law, Willium C. Anderson, 1889, p. 885.Repugnancy, in India, if a State law is repugnant to the Union law relating to the same subject in the concurrent list, the Union law will prevail and the State law will fail to the extent of repugnancy; however, if the State law has been assented to...
