CRP 331/2011 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE AMITAVA ROY The order under challenge is one dated 11.8.2011 passed by the learned Munsiff N o.1, Jorhat in T.S. No. 77/08 rejecting the application filed by the petitioner/ defendant No.1 apprising the Court of the reconstitution of its executive commi ttee whereby its earlier Secretary Sri Ranjit Borpujari had been substituted by Sri Parag Baruah. I have heard Mr A Thakur, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr BK B hattacharjee, learned counsel for the opposite party. The aforementioned suit has been instituted by the opposite party agains t the petitioner and others. In the plaint the petitioner has been arrayed as de fendant No.1 and described to be represented by its Secretary Sri Ranjit Pujari (according to the petitioner ought to be ’Borpujari’). The petitioner/ defendant No.1 has already entered appearance in the suit and filed its written statement verified by the then Secretary of its executive committee Sri Ranjit Borpujari. During the pendency of the suit the executive committee of the petitioner/ def endant No.1 has been reconstituted and Sri Parag Baruah has been elected as the Secretary of the newly constituted executive committee. The petitioner/ defendan t No.1 subsequent thereto filed an application before the learned Court below po sting it with the above information and praying for a direction to strike off th e name of Sri Ranjit Borpujari as the Secretary of its executive committee and r eplace him by the newly elected Secretary Parag Baruah. The learned Court below has by the impugned order rejected this application. Mr Thakur with reference to Section 7 of the Societies Registration Act, 1860 has contended that as in terms thereof the suit ought to continue in absen ce of any other impediment in law against the petitioner/ defendant No.1 with th e successor of Sri Ranjit Borpujari as the Secretary of its executive committee, the learned Court below fell in error in rejecting the application. Mr Bhattacharjee has submitted that as in any view of the matter by oper ation of law the newly elected Secretary of the Executive Committee of the petit ioner/ defendant No.1 will be entitled to defend it in the suit, the rejection of the prayer for striking off the name of the earlier Secretary to be substitut ed by the newly elected incumbent is not of any significance. Upon hearing the learned counsel for the parties and on a consideration of the materials on record, it is provided, to avoid complications in future, th at the name of Sri Ranjit Borpujari as the Secretary of the petitioner/ defendan t No.1 be deleted and in his place that of Sri Parag Baruah in the same capacity be substituted. As the change as above would not in any way have any bearing on the meri t of the rival claims of the parties, it is considered appropriate in view of th e intervening development of election to amend the cause title of the suit as ab ove. The learned Court below would do the needful to effect the aforementioned c orrection. Interim order passed earlier stands vacated. The petition stands disposed in the above terms. No costs.
