Apart from con-clusions of facts, 'grounds' have a factual constituent, also. They must contain the pith and substance of primary facts but not subsidiary facts or evidential details. This requirement as to the communication of all essential constituents of the grounds, Vakil Singh v. State of J&K, AIR 1974 SC 2337: (1975) 3 SCC 545.Grounds mean all the basic facts and materials which have been taken into account by the detaining authority in making the order of detention and on which therefore, the order of detention is based, Khudiram Das v.

Ruling Chief
Ruling Chief, the expression 'Ruling Chief' has not been defined in the Act and must therefore by understood as in common parlance. The meaning of the word 'ruler' as given in Shorter Oxford English Dictionary, 3rd Edn., Vol. 2, p. 1867 is: 'One who, or that which, exercise rule, especially of supreme or sovereign kind.' Normally the expression 'Ruling Chief' connotes 'a person who is endowed with the content of sovereignty and also has the attributes of a sovereign'. According to Black's Law Dictionary, 5th Edn., p. 1252 (See now 7th Edn. P. 1402) the legal conception of 'sovereignty' is stated thus: The supreme, absolute, and uncontrollable power by which any independent state is governed; supreme political authority; paramount control of the constitution and frame of government and its administration; the self-sufficient source of political power, from which all specific political powers are derived; the international independence of a state, combined with the right and power of reg...
Sufficient cause
Sufficient cause, for non-appearance refers to the date on which the absence was made a ground for proceeding ex parte and cannot be stretched to rely upon other circumstances anterior in time, Tea Auction Ltd. v. Grace Hill Tea Industry, AIR 2007 SC 67.Sufficient cause is an expression which is found in various statues. It has been construed liberally in keeping with its ordinary dictionary meaning as adequate or enough. That is, any justifiable reason resulting in vacation has to be understood as sufficient cause. For instance economic difficulty or financial stringency or family reasons may compel a landlord to let out a building in his occupation. So long as it is found to be genuine and bona fide it would amount to vacating a building for sufficient cause, Surinder Singh Sibia v. Vijay Kumar Sood, AIR 1992 SC 1540 (1541): (1992) 1 SCC 70. [H.P. Urban Rent Control Act, 1987, s. 14(3), Proviso 2]The expression 'sufficient cause' cannot be cons-trued too liberally, merely because the...
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...
Sufficient ground
Sufficient ground, the words 'sufficient ground' used also in s. 203 and in s. 209 have been construed to mean the satisfaction that a prima facie case is made out against the person accused by the evidence of witnesses entitled to a reason-able degree of credit, and not sufficient ground for the purpose of conviction, Nirmaljit Singh Hoon v. State of West Bengal, AIR 1972 SC 2639: (1973) 3 SCC 753: (1973) 2 SCR 66. (Cr PC, 1898, s. 203 and 209)The words 'sufficient grounds' do not mean sufficient grounds for the purpose of conviction but mean such evidence as would be sufficient to put the accused upon trial by the jury, Ramgopal Ganpatrai Ruia v. State of Bombay, AIR 1958 SC 97: (1958) SCR 618....
