CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE DEEPAK GUPTA

Present:

Mr. Munish Gupta, Advocate for the peoner.

**** DEEPAK GUPTA, J. (ORAL) By way of impugned order dated 20.07.024 (Annexure P-7), the trial Court has declined the prayer of the peoner- plainff to amend the plaint under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC.

Learned counsel contends that suit was filed for declaraon to the effect that he is the owner in possession of the suit property and had prayed for decree of permanent injuncon. By way of amendment he wanted to add another property in Village Dhade Baba Mohar Singh. The prayer has been declined by observing that allowing the applicaon would add a new cause of acon and will alter the nature of the suit and the proceedings. Perusal of the impugned order would reveal that case is sll at the stage of service inasmuch as defendant No.6 has not been served ll date. The said fact is even confirmed by learned counsel for the peoner before this Court.
