MUSHTAQ AHMAD ETC VS SAIQA CHAUDHARY ETC
Summary: The question raised in this appeal was whether an application of Rule 27 of Order XLI of C.P.C could be decided conjointly while hearing appeal against decree? It has been held that if the appellate court determines that the evidence sought to be produced is of such a nature that its inclusion on the record could fundamentally alter the decision of the main case, then it might indeed be prudent to decide the application separately through a distinct order. This would allow for proper consideration of its admissibility and relevance before proceeding to the merits of the appeal. However, if the appellate court, after initial assessment, forms the view that the proposed evidence, even if admitted, would likely have no material impact on the outcome of the main case, then there is no compelling need to decide the application for additional evidence separately. In such a scenario, a conjoint decision of the application and the main appeal becomes a matter of judicial economy and efficiency. Such approach significantly contributes to the sound administration of justice by streamlining proceedings, preventing unnecessary delays, and ensuring expeditious dispensation of justice.

Nabila Hakim Ali Khan Vs Govt of the Punjab etc
Summary: The petitioner was appointed as Ombudsperson Protection against Harassment of Women at the Workplace, Punjab vide notification dated 17.06.2021 for a term of two years. Subsequently, subsections (5) and (6) in Section 7 were added by way of the Amendment Act which was published in the Punjab Gazette (Extraordinary) on 12.01.2022, whereby term of office of the Ombudsperson has been stipulated for four years. Such amendment has not only fixed tenure of the Ombudsperson to be four years but also curtailed her eligibility for extension of tenure or re-appointment. The commencement clause of the Amendment Act clearly stipulates that it "shall come into force at once." This legislative phrasing indicates an immediate application of the amended provisions upon their enactment. Since the Amendment Act, including the revised tenure stipulated in the amended Section 7, came into force while the petitioner was still serving as the Ombudsperson, the extended tenure of four years became applicable to her office. In the absence of any legislative expression within the Amendment Act explicitly suggesting that the new tenure provision would only apply to future appointments, it squarely applied to the petitioner and the notification dated 01.04.2022 was lawfully issued by the Government of the Punjab to give immediate effect to the Amendment Act whereby tenure of the petitioner as Ombudsperson was extended to four years with effect from her initial taking of charge on 18.06.2021. 392Crl.
