According to section 75 readwith Order XXVI CPC and Chapter 10, Part-B of Lahore High Court Rules and Orders, Volume-I, Court can appoint a commission inter-alia for local investigation and report submitted by the said commission can be used by the court for just decision of the case.

 Local Commission is appointed for aid of the court to arrive at a just conclusion and authenticity of the report submitted by the Local Commission cannot lightly be ruled out especially when parties concerned have failed to impugn its validity by filing substantial objections convincing the court to discard the report of the Local Commission

There is no cavil with the fact that no lis can be decided only on the basis of report of Local Commission but when the Local Commission was appointed by court with mutual consent of the parties and undertaking that they would abide by the findings of the Local Commission, Court can decide the matter on the basis thereof. Further, if a party is aggrieved of report of the Local Commission can file objections against its report but when the said objections are spurned by the court, matter between the parties can be decided on the basis of report of the Local Commission.
