In view of the proviso read with the explanation, a Court which had entertained the petition of compromise has to examine whether the compromise was void or voidable under the Indian Contract Act." (5) It is thus manifest that Hon'ble Supreme Court has found that any party challenging the compromise can file petition under proviso to Rule 3 of Order 23 CPC or can appeal under Sec. 96(1) and he can question the validity of the compromise in view of Rule 1-A of Order 43 of the Code. The Kerla High Court relying on the Judgment of the Apex Court in `Banwari Lal's case has observed in the case of `Meenakshi (supra) that Order 43, Rule 1-A and Order 23, Rule 3-A make the position abundantly clear that challenge against the compromise decree cannot be by a separate suit. It has been further held in this case that in view of proviso to Rule 3 and the Explanation thereto, the Court which entertained the compro-mise petition only can examine whether it was void r voidable. ekuuh; mPp U;k;ky; ds mi;qZDr fu.kZ; ds izdk'k esa bl U;k;ky; dk ;g Li"V vfHker gS fd gLrxr izdj.k esa v/khuLFk ijh{k.k U;k;ky; }kjk ikfjr jkthukesa dh fMØh ds laca/k esa vihykFkhZx.k dh tks Hkh ifjosnuk,a vkifRr;ka gSa] mUgsa ijh{k.k U;k;ky; ds le{k gh izLrqr dh tkuh mfpr gksxhA ijh{k.k U;k;ky; dk funsZ'k gS fd nksuksa i{kksa dks lqudj Lo;a ds U;k;ky; }kjk ikfjr fu.kZ;@fMØh esa O;kid U;k;fgr esa] ;fn vko';d gks rks] okafNr la'kks/ku djsaA 9- mijksDr izs{k.kksa ¼observations½ ds vk/kkj ij vihykFkhZx.k }kjk izLrqr vihy [kkfjt dh tkrh gSA vihykFkhZx.k dks funsZ'k gS fd os viuh vkifRr;ka ijh{k.k U;k;ky; esa izLrqr djsaA mHk; i{k ijh{k.k U;k;ky; esa fnukad 1-11-2011 dks mifLFkr gksaA fu.kZ; [kqys U;k;ky; esa lquk;k x;kA
