(1.) THIS is a defendant's appeal directed against judgment and decree of Sri Rati Ram, learned Civil Judge, Rampur dated 19th March, 1974, in Civil Appeal 127 of 1972 arising out of original suit 526 of 1970 by which learned civil Judge affirmed the judgment and decree of learned Munsif who allowed plaintiff's claim.
(2.) IT appears that plaintiff-respondent Satish Chandra filed a suit against defendant-appellant for recovery of Rs. 2200/- with the allegations that defendant-appellant borrowed a sum of Rs. 1285/- from plaintiff on 1-10-1967 and executed a pronote and receipt in his favour as a collateral security. The amount carried interest at the rate of Rs. 2% per month and was payable On demand. Nothing was paid despite demands; hence the suit.
(3.) I have heard learned Counsel for the Parties and perused the record.
