2 The learned Counsel appearing for the Respondents has drawn my attention to original general power of attorney dated 24 November 2023 executed by Smt. Sushila Jaishingrao Patil, Ajit Jaishingrao Patil, Sangita Bhangansingh Naik and Sujata Amol Patil in favour of Respondent No.1(c) Anil Jaisingrao Patil. A photocopy of the power of attorney is taken on record and marked ‘X’ for identification. No doubt general power of attorney dated 24 November 2023 is executed after execution of the compromise pursis dated 28 September 2022. However in para 9 of the power of attorney, Respondent Nos.1(a), 1(b), 1(d) and 1(e) have authorized Respondent No.1(c) to compromise, settle and withdraw the Suit No.166 of 1979, Appeal No.243 of 1984 and Second Appeal No.298 of 1990. Therefore, even though general power of attorney is executed after execution of compromise pursis, there appears to be a clear power given to Respondent No.1(c) to compromise, compound, settle and withdraw the Suit, Appeal as well as Second Appeal. The Appellant Bhalchandra Shrikrishna Kulkarni is present in the Court. Similarly, Respondent No.1(c) Anil Jaisingrao Patil is also present before the Court.
