Ans. The period of limitation
Cookie Settings Accept
provided in the law of limitation
prohibits to get the relief, but it does
not mean that after expiry of the
period of limitation, the plaintiff is
not entitled to get that relief out of
Court.

Example: – According to the law of


limitation, even after the expiry of the
limitation period. A will be a debtor of
‘B’. If ‘A’ repays the amount of his
debt to ‘B’ out of Court, then, ‘B’ is
definitely entitled to receive this
amount, even though it is time-
barred. ‘A’ is not entitled to get this
amount back from ‘B’.

It is noteworthy that the law of


limitation is only a procedural law,
which can neither create rights and
liabilities nor can it put an end of the
same.

After expiry of limitation-period, it


only ends relief through the Court.

Law of limitation only makes end of


the relief through Courts by filing
suits. If right of a person can be
exercised through any mode
otherwise than by filing a suit, then
the law of limitation does not prohibit
him to exercise his right.

Q.28. ‘A’ transfers his property


to ‘B’ for life and thereafter to his
unborn son for life. Whether
transfer of property to unborn

Transfer of Property Act, 1882?
Explain with reason.

Ans. In this question, since no


absolute and whole of the interest in
the property has been transferred in
favour of the unborn son and merely
a life-interest has been created in his
favour, therefore, no interest will be
created for the benefit of the unborn
person.

Under Section 5, Transfer of Property


Act, 1882, transfer of property may be
made by the living persons to the
living persons. Whereas Section 13 is
its exception.

purchase. In his show-room, there
remains crowd of customers. The
defendant is a distributor, editor,
publisher and printer of a daily
newspaper, namely, “Dainik Prakash
Punji” from Jodhpur (Raj.). On……….
(date), ‘A’ defendant edited, printed,
published, sold and distributed the
following news against ‘B’ plaintiff on
column……………of page………. of his
aforesaid newspaper, which has been
marked as Ex.P.1, (which was
enclosed as Annexure-1 with the
plaint). This newspaper is distributed
in near about all of the Hindi-
speaking provinces of India.
Language of the relevant news is as
under:—

“On……………… (date), the S.H.O. of


Police-Station,……………… Jodhpur,
produced accused ‘B’ for remand
before the Judicial Magistrate of the
First Class, Jodhpur, for Judicial
Custody remand in a rape case

the judicial custody remand, ordered
to send accused ‘B’ behind the bars

defamatory, whose wide publication

defamed the plaintiff. Due to his
defamation, the plaintiff has claimed
Rs.5,25,000/- as damages with costs
of the suit from the defendant.

In his written-statement, the


defendant admitted that he printed,
edited, published and distributed the
aforesaid news. But he further
pleaded that he had published this
news, for which he had right under
Constitution. This news was quite
true, bona fide and correct. He has
not only the right, but duty also, to
bring the crimes and their accused
persons to the notice of the general
public. Therefore, the suit of the
plaintiff be dismissed with costs.

On the basis of pleadings of the


parties, the following issues were
framed:—

(1) Whether the defendant, by


publishing false, wrong and
defamatory news in his newspaper
“Daily Prakash Punj” dated…………..,
defamed the plaintiff?

(Plaintiff)

(2) Whether the defendant had


rightfully and truly published the

(3) Relief.
Issue No. 1:—

Burden to prove this issue is on the


plaintiff. P.W. 1 plaintiff ‘B’, in his
cross-examination, has admitted this
fact that on………… (date), the S.H.O.,
Police-Station . ………….. Jodhpur,
produced the plaintiff for remand
before the Judicial Magistrate of the
First Class, Jodhpur, for Judicial
custody remand in a rape case
punishable under Section 376, IPC.
P.W.I plaintiff ‘B’ further admitted
that though he moved an application
for bail before the Magistrate, but it
was rejected. Then after hearing both
the parties, judicial custody remand
was granted for ‘B’ and he was
ordered to be sent in the Central Jail,
Jodhpur.

There is no prohibition for a
Cookie Settings Accept
newspaper to use idioms and phrases.
It is undisputed that the above news
was edited, published and distributed
by the defendant; and while granting
judicial custody remand, plaintiff was
ordered to be sent to the Central Jail,
Jodhpur.

In my opinion, if any person is sent in


Jail, though on “judicial custody
remand”, it may be printed and
published in the newspaper that the
accused was sent behind the bars and
lodged in the jail. To use the
idiomatic language by media is quite
lawful and constitutional, rather it
makes the language more intelligible
and interesting. It was never printed
and published that the accused was
convicted, sentenced and punished
and sent to jail. In judicial custody
remand the accused is definitely sent
to jail, i.e., behind bars and lodged
there.

Hence, it is concluded that the news


in question was quite true and
correct; and it was never baseless,
incorrect, false, defamatory or
exaggeration.

Therefore, this issue is decided in


favour of the defendant and against
the plaintiff.

Constitution, every citizen has been

Consequently, this issue is decided in


favour of the defendant and against
the plaintiff.

Issue No. 3:—

Plaintiff has totally, failed to prove


his case by his oral and documentary
evidence. Therefore, suit of the
plaintiff is dismissed with costs.

(C) The concept of separation of


powers in the Constitution of
India.

(D) The doctrine of pleasure and


concept of reasonable
opportunity of hearing in the
Constitution of India.

Ans. (A) Concept of equality in


the Constitution of India:—

In the Constitution of India, the


concept of equality has been inspired
mainly from “Rule of Law” of the
English Constitution and partly from
“due process of law” of the American
Constitution.

Under Article 14 of our Constitution,


the State shall not deny to any person
equality before the law or the equal
protection of the law within the
territory of India.

The meaning of equal protection of


the law is that in equal circumstances
equal law shall be applicable to every
person and he shall be behaved

Do not sell my personal information.
Within the territory of India no
Cookie Settings Accept
person shall be denied from equality
before the law or equal protection of
the law.

The term “Equal protection of the


law” is sub-principle of “equality
before the law”. They are co-related to
each other and, in fact, both the terms
have the same meaning.

For example: Legislation made for the


benefit of the women, children, poor
and members of Scheduled
Castes/Tribes.

Fundamental right of equality


includes:—

(1) Equality before the law and equal


protection of the law (Article 14)

(2) Prohibition of discrimination on


grounds of religion, race, caste, sex or
place of birth (Article 15)

(3) Equality of opportunity in matter


of public employment (Article 16)

(4) Abolition of untouchability


(Article 17)

(5) Abolition of titles (Article 18).

Under Article
Cookie Settings Accept226 of the Constitution

of India, notwithstanding anything in


Article 32, every High Court shall
have power, throughout the
territories in relation to which it
exercises jurisdiction, to issue to any
person or authority, including, in
appropriate cases, any Government,
within those territories, directions,
orders, writs, including writs in the
nature of habeas corpus, mandamus,
prohibition, quo warranto and
certiorari or any of them for the
enforcement of any of the rights
conferred by Part III and for any
other purposes.

Note:—In the Constitution of


India, the following five
categories of writs have been
described:—

(1) Habeas Corpus.—Its object is to


enquire into the matter relating to
illegal detention and to release such
detained person immediately. Such
writ may be issued against the
authority and also the private person.
Such writ-petition may be presented
by the friend, relative or social-service
institution/worker.

person. It is sufficient to explain as to

why the person was detained and/or
convicted. (Kanu Sanyal vs.
State/District Magistrate, (1974).

(2) Mandamus.—The object of this


writ is to compel a public authority to
perform his public duty and to stop
the unlawful acts. This writ cannot be
issued against the private persons and
institutions for compelling them to
perform their duties.

Such writ cannot be issued against


any public authority compelling him
to do his discretionary act, e.g., he
cannot be compelled to increase the
dearness allowance.

Apart from the affected persons, such


writ may be presented by a social-
service institution also, which
includes public interest petition.

(3) Prohibition.—When a subordinate


Court has been trying or hearing any
matter beyond its jurisdiction, then
by issuing such writ, further
proceeding of the matter is stayed.

(4) Certiorari.—When judgments are


passed by the subordinate Courts
beyond their jurisdiction, error of law
is committed, or the principles of
natural justice are not followed, then

have allegedly committed errors of


law or judicial mistakes in their
judgments, then, with the object to
correct such mistakes, after due
hearing of the matter, such writ may
be issued.

(5) Quo warranto.—Its object is that


the person, who is unlawfully holding
a certain public office, be asked as to
by which authority or on what ground
he has been holding certain office?
Such petition may be filed by the
affected person or the institution.

(C) The Concept of Separation of


Powers in the Constitution of
India:—

In the eighteen century, for the


concept of separation of powers, main
credit goes to Mentesque, whose
impact was on the formation of the
American Constitution.

The object of this concept is that the


functions and powers of the
Legislature, the Executive and the
Judiciary of the Country/State should
be kept separate from each other.

The main object of its principle is that


if all the aforesaid powers are
conferred to a sole or single body of

and it will adversely affect the
personal freedom.
Cookie Settings Accept In India also, this
principle has been followed. Here, the
Executive power vests in the
President of India and in the
Provinces/States, Governors have
been empowered with Executive
power; the Parliament has been
empowered with the Legislative
powers and in the same way the
Provincial Legislative Assemblies
have also been empowered to exercise
the Legislative powers; and the
Judicial Power vests in the Supreme
Court, High Courts and their
subordinate Courts.

In the aforesaid three wings, there are


separate persons. By such separation,
there remains mutual, “check and
balance” and it controls and prevents
arbitrariness. In India, free and
impartial Judiciary is considered to be
a special feature of our constitution,
because here the principle of
separation of powers has been
adopted.

(D) (i) Doctrine of Pleasure:—

Every person who is a member of


Defence Service or a member of Civil
Service of the Union or all-India
Service holds his post as per pleasure
of the President of India.

post as per pleasure of the Governor
of that State.

The doctrine of pleasure is checked


and governed by Article 311 of the
Constitution of India.

(ii) Concept of reasonable


opportunity of hearing:—

The Concept of reasonable


opportunity of hearing is a subject-
matter of administrative law and
constitutional law. It is a main
principle of natural justice that before
initiating any proceeding or inflicting
any punishment to the person
concerned, he should be provided
with “reasonable opportunity of
hearing”. Before his hearing, the
person concerned should be served
with notice and given show-cause-
notice; and then his statement should
be recorded and he or his
representative should be given
reasonable opportunity of producing
evidence in his defence and also
reasonable opportunity of hearing.

Under Article 311 of the Indian


Constitution, the affected person
should be given reasonable
