C.R. No. 778 of 2011 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.R. No. 778 of 2011 Date of Decision: February 2, 2011 Santokh Singh …..Petitioner Vs. Azad Singh and others …..Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI. -.- Present:- Mr.S.S. Rangi, Advocate for the petitioner. -.- M.M.S. BEDI, J. (ORAL) The defendant has filed this revision petition aggrieved by the order dated November 9, 2010 dismissing the application filed by the petitioner under Section 151 CPC for dismissal of the suit on the ground that during the pendency of the suit the plaintiff- respondent No.1 has sold his entire share in the property in dispute and that he has lost all his claim of ownership or possession in the property in dispute. C.R. No. 778 of 2011 [2] Counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the trial Court has acted illegally in dismissing the application. After hearing counsel for the petitioner, I am of the opinion that the plea on the basis of which the defendant- petitioner wants the suit to be dismissed can be taken up by him in his written statement/ amended written statement. The relief sought for by the applicant can be obtained by him after adjudication of issue on the point. Besides this, this Court is of the considered opinion that in exercise of powers under Section 151 CPC, the trial Court did not have any jurisdiction to dismiss the suit by allowing the application filed by the defendant- petitioner. No ground is made out for interference. Dismissed without prejudice to the rights of the petitioner. February 2, 2011 (M.M.S.BEDI) sanjay JUDGE
