when the witness did not 
turned up for the cross either party who thinks that his evidence will
support his case can file a petition seeking the court to issue summons
to that witnesss. Even if he fails to appear after the receipt of summons the court can issue BW and then NBW so as to secure his presence.


 


If
the oppurtunity of Cross eaxamination was not provided to the opposite
party the court will eschew the evidence in chief of that witness.

would anyone tell me by which provision of the indian Evidence Act the recorded evidence would be eschewed.

As per the Indian Evidence Act, in case a witness is uable/unavailabe or deny execution of any particular agreement, then execution can be prooved by other means. Its not like that exection can be prooved only through witness.
