Maru Ram Etc. Etc vs Union Of Lndia & Anr on 11 November, 1980

20. The appellant in Shubedar Ram v. Union of India, questioned the jurisdiction of the Court of Civil Judge (Junior Division), Bhubaneswar in entertaining a suit filed by the respondents challenging the action of taking over of the vehicle obtained by him on lease. The appellants contended that in the face of specific clause in the related agreement, the Court at Calcutta only had the jurisdiction to try any dispute arising out of the contract. The Apex Court ruled that it is open for the parties to fix the jurisdiction of a competent Court to have their dispute adjudicated by that Court alone. Elucidating the proposition, it held that if one or more Courts have jurisdiction to try any suit, it is open for the parties to choose one of such competent Courts to decide their disputes.
