THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Civil Revision Petition No.5611 of 2010 ORDER: This civil revision petition, under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, is directed against the order dated 03.11.2010 passed in I.A. No. 551 of 2010 in O.S. No. 578 of 2008 by the learned III Additional District Judge, Fast Track Court, Ranga Reddy District, whereunder the petition filed by the petitioners herein, seeking to implead them as defendants 14 to 28 in the suit, was dismissed. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the 1st respondent and perused the order under revision and other material available on record. The 1st respondent herein filed the present suit against the defendants, respondents 2 to 14 herein, for specific performance of agreement of sale dated 27.06.2002 and for partition of the suit schedule property by metes and bounds. When the suit is coming up for cross-examination of P.W.1, the petitioners herein, who are third parties to the suit, came up with the present petition, contending that the suit property is the ancestral property of them and the defendants and thus they are proper and necessary parties to the suit. Admittedly, the petitioners herein are strangers to the suit agreement and no relief is prayed by the plaintiff against them. Thus, when there is no privity of contract between the plaintiff and the petitioners herein, the petitioners, merely on the ground that they have right and interest in the suit property, cannot seek to be impleaded as party respondents in the present suit. Furthermore, a perusal of the grounds of the civil revision petition would reveal that the petitioners have filed a separate suit for partition of the suit schedule property along with other property and the same is numbered as O.S. No. 133 of 2010 and pending on the file of the I Additional District Judge, Ranga Reddy District. If that is so, they can pursue their rights in the said suit and they have no right to insist that they should be impleaded as party defendants in the present suit, when admittedly they are strangers to the suit document. The trial Judge, considering all these facts, have rightly dismissed the present application by the order under revision and I see no reason to interfere therewith, in exercise of supervisory jurisdiction of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The civil revision petition is devoid of merit and is accordingly dismissed. __________________ JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA 10th December, 2010 IBL
