of the plaintiff arranged the said loan amount of Rs. 2 lacs
from the funds of the plaintiff and advanced the same to the
defendant. It is even seen that plaintiff states that the
defendant approached the plaintiff through her son namely
Sh. Manish Gangwani who is the SPA of the plaintiff in the
present case. Thus, it is seen that the pleadings suggest
that the said loan transaction was in the personal knowledge
of the SPA holder i.e. son of the plaintiff and in fact he was a
participant in the said loan in as much as the request for the
loan was made through him and he arranged the loan
amount from the funds of the plaintiff and gave it to the
defendant. In the evidence by way of affidavit of PW-1 it is
deposed by the PW-1/ SPA holder that he being the son of
the plaintiff has been looking after and managing the affairs
of the plaintiff and is fully conversant with the facts and
circumstances of the present case. The other facts
regarding the loan, above mentioned have also been

deposed in the evidence by way of affidavit Ex PW 1/A. The
witness PW-1 has been cross-examined upon the factum of
the execution of SPA Ex PW 1/1 in his favour but nothing
has come out which could disprove the execution of the said
SPA Ex PW 1/1 in favour of the said Sh. Manish Gangwani
PW-1. To the question regarding who were present at the
time of the execution Ex PW 1/2 i.e. pronote, the witness
PW-1 has answered in his cross-examination dated
18.05.2009 that the plaintiff, the defendant and he himself
were present at that time. The witness PW-1 has also
further deposed that at the time of signing of the pronote Ex
PW 1/2 money dealing was made by the defendant. It
further shows that the SPA i.e. PW-1 had personal
knowledge of the said loan transaction and was present at
the time of its execution and money dealing. Although PW-1
could not tell the name of the writer who had written /
prepared the said pronote Ex PW 1/2 but merely that cannot

oust him from his personal knowledge and participation in
the transaction as noted above. Thus, in this case the power
of attorney holder PW-1 has deposed upon the facts which
are a part of transaction in question and were in his personal
knowledge. Thus, there is cause of action in favour of the
plaintiff and against the defendant and it cannot be held that
PW-1 was not competent to depose on behalf of plaintiff.
