Bant Singh And Others Respondents

JUDGEMENT

- (1.) The plaintiffs are in appeal. They have challenged the order dated October 14, 2006 passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Rupnagar whereby on an appeal filed by the plaintiffs, the judgment and decree of the trial Court has been set aside and the case has been remanded back to the trial Court for a fresh decision of the controversy.

(3.)
