Perused record. 2. By these chamber summonses, the defendants seek to amend their written statements. The amendment to the written statement needs to bring factual aspects on record. The suit is yet to go for trial. Under these circumstances, I see no difficulty in allowing these chamber summonses. However, considering the delay in taking out chamber summonses, the same can be made absolute subject to payment of costs. 3. Accordingly, both chamber summonses are made absolute in terms of prayer clauses (a) and (b), subject to payment of costs of Rs.5,000/- to be paid to the plaintiff within two weeks from today. The defendant to carry out amendment within one week thereafter. It would be open to the plaintiff to make consequential amendment in the plaint, if advised. (V.C.DAGA, J.) (V.C.DAGA, J.)
