IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.4008 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision 18.01.2011 Kanwaljit Singh and others ...... Petitioners VERSUS Charanjit Singh and others ...... Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE A.N.JINDAL Present: Mr.Parveen Kumar, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr.Ravinder Singh, Advocate, for Mr.Vipin Mahajan, Advocate, for respondent No.7. ***** A.N.JINDAL, J: The petitioners have invoked the powers under Article 227 of the Constitution of India while praying for setting aside the order dated 13.05.2010, passed by Civil Judge (Senior Division), Gurdaspur, allowing the application of respondent No.7-defendant No.4 (herein referred as 'defendant No.4') under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC for amendment of the written statement, filed by defendant No.1 deceased Swaran Singh. Vide impugned order dated 13.05.2010, the trial Court, without consideration, had permitted the defendant No.4 to amend the written statement by pleading that the suit land is joint Hindu family coparcenary property, managed by defendant No.1 as Karta and the alleged sale deeds are false and fabricated documents. Though earlier, the plea, set up by defendant No.1 Swaran Singh (since deceased) was that he had executed the sale deeds being the owner of the property. The trial Court, though has allowed defendant No.4 to amend the written statement yet the earlier written statement, as filed by Swaran Singh deceased would not leave its entity. However, in view of the settled law that even the contradictory pleas could be raised, I do not want to interfere in the impugned order. Resultantly, this petition is dismissed. However, the Court could take notice of the admissions, made by the deceased Swaran Singh in the written statement at the time of deciding the case on merits. (A.N.Jindal) Judge 18.01.2011 mamta-II
