MAIN CASE
Present Revision Petition has been filed by the judgment-
debtor under Article 227 of the Constitution of India for setting aside the
order dated 22.03.2024 (Annexure P14) passed by the learned Additional
Civil Judge (Senior Division), Ganaur in Execution Petition (EXE-34-2018)
whereby on the basis of affidavit filed by the respondent/plaintiff/decree
holder i.e. Naresh Kumar, he/Naresh Kumar and Narender Singh have
been considered to be one and the same person; and it has been directed
by the learned Executing Court to deposit the decretal amount in the bank
amount of said Narender Singh without there being any proof.
2. It is inter alia submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner
that vide the impugned order, the learned Executing Court has allowed

##PAGE3##CR-1995-2024 Page 3 of 13
Award/Decree by granting permission to the respondent to amend the
plaint on the ground that name of the respondent-plaintiff was wrongly
mentioned in the plaint as “Naresh Kumar” instead of “Narender Singh son
of Prithi Singh” due to typographical mistake. It is submitted that the
amendment has been allowed by the learned Executing Court merely on
the basis of an affidavit filed by the respondent. Even no opportunity was
granted to the petitioner to rebut the said assertion of the respondent.
Moreover, it has been wrongly observed by the learned Executing Court
in the impugned order that the petitioner has never objected to the
identity of Naresh Kumar and Narender Singh being one and the same
person. Learned counsel refers to the reply (Annexure P12) filed by the
petitioner to the amendment application (Annexure P11) filed by the
respondent, wherein the petitioner has strongly controverted the fact that
Naresh Kumar and Narender Singh are one and the same person. It is
pointed out that since 2012, the respondent has not disputed rather, has
perpetuated his identity as Naresh Kumar. All proceedings filed by the
respondent against the petitioner have been as ‘Naresh Kumar’. However,
in 2024, the respondent has suddenly claimed to be Narender Singh. It is
contended that even otherwise, the Award is passed in favour of Naresh
Kumar. As such, the decretal amount cannot be released in favour of
Narender Singh. It is accordingly prayed that the present Revision Petition
be allowed, and the impugned order be set aside.
