(02) I had filed my examination-in-chief & list of documents.
(03) I got crossed by Opponent on behalf of all four of us Disputants.
(04) I called our witness & then closed evidence.
(05) Opponent Society & Secretary filed their common Affidavit of Evidence. In the same they made a statement that “…consent letter is signed by my younger brother…”. (In reality it is forged, fabricated & back dated. None of us has signed it.)
(05-a) I did not cross Opponent Secretary on this point (05) during his cross examination, since not aware by the law that I have to contradict/deny on every points on which I am not admitting, if it is so.
(06) What will be its effect to this non-asking question/cross on this point mentioned at (05) ?
(07) Will it be considered that I & we admit it since I did not crossed Secretary on that point ?
(08) Is there any remedy to overcome / rectify this mistake done by me ?

the Ooponets have to prove that consent letter signed by your brother . if you have in case and in affidavit denied that you have signed said letter burden of proof is on society .
you ought to have cross examined society on said issue . it is necessar to go through evidence on record to answer whether you have admitted signature on consent letter .
you can make an application to court that you want to recall your brother to give evidence as to said consent letter

Raise the issue of forgery though filing a petition u/s 340 crpc.
The forgery needs to be determined first which would put all disputes at rest.
