Appearance :
Smt. Jayabati Barick, in person
The Court :- Perused the report filed by the Registrar, Original Side of
this Court dated 18th March, 2020. It appears from the said report to which a
report of the Department of Ophthalmology, IPGME&R-SSKM Hospital, filed in
terms of the order dated 12th February, 2020 passed by this Court is enclosed
that Nader Chand Barik is having hundred per cent blindness as per
Government of India Norms.
It further appears from the Registrar's report that save and except
the deposition, all cause papers in the TS 17 of 2017 and TS 1 of 2012 are
available. The report further reveals that the Assistant Registrar, Testamentary
Department has prayed for passing necessary direction upon various Record
2
Section of the Original Side i.e. Current Record Department, Old Record
Department, New building Record (NBR) Department and Central Record Room
at Khidderpore to make extensive searches to trace out the original deposition in
the aforesaid suit. In my opinion, though specific direction is not required on
each of the record sections for searching the record in the said departments as
prayed for by the Assistant Registrar, Testamentary Department as indicated in
the said report but by way of abundant precaution I pass direction upon the
Registrar, Original Side as also Assistant Registrar, Testamentary Department to
look for the deposition in the two suits being TS 17 of 2017 and TS 1 of 2012 in
all possible places where records are either temporarily or permanently stored
and/or kept in this Court premises or outside.
