// 1 // IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR ORDER IN S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.6114/2008 Pooran Chand S/o Prem Lal Mahajan and Another Versus Mithan Lal S/o Harish Chandra and Others Date of Order ::: 25.08.2008 Present Hon'ble Mr. Justice Narendra Kumar Jain Shri B.L. Mandhana, Counsel for the petitioners #### By the Court:- Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The plaintiff-respondent filed a suit for eviction and arrears of rent in the year 1998, wherein written-statement was filed by the defendant-petitioners long back; thereafter issues were framed and plaintiff's evidence has been closed. Now, at this stage, the present defendant-petitioner filed an application for amendment in the written-statement under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC, which has been refused by the trial court vide order dated 15th May, 2008, which is under challenge in this writ petition preferred on behalf of the defendant- petitioner. I have considered the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioners in the // 2 // light of reasons assigned by the trial court for rejecting the application. The reasons assigned by the trial court appears to be perfectly justified in the facts and circumstances of the present case. The trial court has also observed that the suit relates to the year 1998 and the present application has been filed only with the purpose to delay the eviction proceedings and cannot be said to be bona-fide. I do not find any illegality, perversity or jurisdictional error in the impugned order so as to interfere with the same under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. There is no merit in this writ petition and the same is accordingly dismissed in limine. (Narendra Kumar Jain) J. //Jaiman//
