' JAWWAD S. KHAWAJA, J.---This appeal as of right arises out of a suit for recovery of money filed by the present appellants. The suit was decreed in the sum of Rs.20,76,000, by the learned trial Court, vide judgment and decree dated 29-1-2005. The respondents filed an appeal (R.F.A. No.4 of 2005), while the appellants-plaintiffs filed cross-objections. The appeal has been allowed and as a consequence, the suit of the appellants-plaintiffs has been dismissed.
2. We have gone through the impugned judgment and record with the assistance of learned counsel on both sides. The impugned judgment is well reasoned and proceeds on a proper consideration of the law. The appellants alleged an oral agreement between themselves and the FBR. The learned counsel for the appellants referred to Exh.P.W.1/1, but this is a document, which has not been signed by any person on behalf of the respondents/FBR. Learned counsel for the appellants then referred to the correspondence Exhs.P.W.11/3 and P.W.12/1, between the Collector of Customs and the then CBR, but this correspondence is also of no help to the appellants, being internal to the department through which, the Collector/Superintendent solicited advice and approval of the higher authorities as to, "which of the [sic] party may be contacted for completion of further necessary formalities in order to hire the site". Learned counsel for the appellants conceded that Secretary, FBR or other departmental functionaries have not signed the proposed lease agreement. He, however, submitted that certain construction and modifications were also made on the oral direction of Customs officials. This, however, is irrelevant because it was for the appellants, as rightly held by the High Court, to ensure that there was an agreement in place before they made any construction/modifications on the property in question.
3. In view of the foregoing discussion, we find no reason to interfere in the impugned judgment which as noted above, proceeds on a proper consideration of the law. This appeal is, therefore, dismissed.
