But while making such distinction, the Apex Court did not take into consideration the settled proposition of law that appeal is a continuation of proceeding or in effect a re-hearing of the original proceeding (Vijai Nath v. Damodar Das, ; Damodar Mukherjee and Ors. v. Bonwarikd Agarwalla and Ors., ; Dayawati v. Inderjit, ). The appeal cannot travel beyond the scope of the original proceeding. A ground, which is not available in the suit, cannot become available in an appeal unless there is a change in law in a given circumstances. Admittedly, in the present case, there has been no chance in the law.
