INDRADEO YADAV S/O LATE JUGESHWAR YADAV R/O VILL.- RASALPUR, P.O.- KOPARIYA, P.S.- SALAKHUA, DISTT.- SAHARSA ----------- 04. 31.03.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners. Leave is sought to delete respondent no.-4. Let it be so done at the risk of the petitioner. The petitioner is aggrieved by an order dated 18.8.2007 in Title Suit No. 71 of 1991 passed by Sub Judge-III, Saharsa, rejecting his application for deleting Indradeo Yadav as a party plaintiff to the Suit. Indradeo Yadav was added as co-plaintiff on 22.4.1996. He deposed in the Suit also. Thereafter the petitioner as the co-plaintiff filed an application on 26.5.1998 for deleting Indradeo Yadav. That application remained pending for nearly 9 years, when it was pressed on behalf of the petitioner on 23.4.2007. The trial court considering the fact that Indradeo Yadav was added as party long back had already deposed in the Suit and the petitioner had not been diligent for nearly 9 years has rejected his prayer. This Court in the entirety of the reasoning finds no reason calling for interference with the same. The application is dismissed. P.K ( Navin Sinha, J.)
