Affidavit
I, Arjun Kumar, S/o Ramesh Kumar, Hindu, aged about 35 years, Businessman, residing at 123, Green Park, New Delhi, do hereby solemnly affirm and state on oath as follows:
- I am the defendant in the above suit and the petitioner herein, and I am well acquainted with the facts of the case.
- The matter stood posted to 6th May 2025 for my evidence. Unfortunately, I was suffering from jaundice for the last few weeks, and was completely bedridden and unable to attend before the Hon’ble Court.
- Consequently, I was set ex parte on the said date, and the matter was posted for arguments.
- I humbly submit that my evidence and the witnesses I intend to produce are vital for proper adjudication of the case. I have a valid defense and intend to contest the matter in good faith.
- The absence on the said date was neither willful nor due to negligence on my part.
Hence, I respectfully pray that the Hon’ble Court may be pleased to set aside the ex parte order dated 6th May 2025 passed against me and permit me to contest the suit in the interest of justice.
Otherwise, I will be put to irreparable loss.
