Thakur Sukhpal Singh vs Thakur Kalyan Singh on 2 May, 1962
Being the final Court of fact, the first
appellate court must not record mere general expression of
concurrence with the trial Court judgment rather it must give reasons
for its decision on such point independently to that of the trial
Court. Thus, the entire evidence must be considered and discussed in
detail. Such exercise should be done after formulating the points for
consideration in terms of the said provisions and the Court must
proceed in adherence to the requirements of the said statutory
provisions. (Vide: Sukhpal Singh v. Kalyan Singh, AIR 1963
