DATE : 19TH JUNE, 2009. P.C. : 1. Notices have been served to respondent Nos. 2a to 2g, who remained absent. It is seen that they are not interested in opposing the civil application.

It appears that there was some : 2 : confusion on the part of the litigant as well as advocate as regards the manner in which the point of bringing heirs of respondent No.2 on record. In my view, a liberal view will have to be taken particularly applicants were not aware that the heirs of the deceased required to be brought on record.

There shall be no order as to costs. (R.Y. Ganoo, J.)
