adducing evidence on the side of the defendants. The Court below allowed this application. Aggrieved by the same, the present Civil Revision Petition has been filed before this Court.
5. The Court below while allowing the application took into consideration the nature of the relief that was sought for by the plaintiff for recovery of possession and hence, thought it fit to give one opportunity to the defendants to adduce the evidence. The Court below further held that the endorsement made on the side of the defendants by the counsel should not seal the fate of the defendants and prevent them from adducing any evidence in the suit. The suit is of the year 2025.
6. In the considered view of this Court, the Court below has properly exercised its jurisdiction and the order does not suffer from any perversity warranting interference of this Court. The Court below has made it clear that the application is allowed with a condition that the defendants will not take advantage of the same to prolong the matter and the defendants will have to file the list of witnesses during the next date of hearing itself. Therefore, the Court below was vigilant enough to caution the defendants not to take advantage of the fact that the application has been filed.
