SC held that under Order 18 Rule 17 CPC and Section 165 of Evidence Act, the power to recall a witness is exclusively within the court's discretion. The court may exercise its inherent jurisdiction under Section 151 CPC to permit a party to recall a witness if circumstances warrant, but such recall is not an automatic right.
