IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.9282 of 2011 ANIL KR.MAHTO & ORS …. Petitioners Versus JAGDISH PODDAR & ORS …. Opp. Parties ----------- 2. 21.06.2011 Heard the learned Senior counsel Mr. Shiv Nandan Rai on behalf of the petitioner. This writ application is directed against the order dated 17.3.2010 passed by Munsif – 1st Begusarai in Title Suit No. 49 of 2000 rejecting the application under Order 1 Rule 10 and 151 C.P.C. filed on behalf of the plaintiff praying for adding the State of Bihar as defendant in the suit. From perusal of the impugned order it appears that the learned court below found that no relief has been claimed against the State of Bihar by the plaintiff. The learned counsel submitted that in the written statement the defendant has taken a defence that the suit is bad for non-joinder of State of Bihar a necessary party. It appears that after 9 years this application under Order 1 Rule 10 C.P.C. has been filed and since no relief has been claimed against the State of Bihar by the plaintiff and further that the prayer is for declaration of title and/or recovery of possession, I do not find any reason to interfere in exercise of supervisory jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Accordingly, this writ application is dismissed. S.S. (Mungeshwar Sahoo,J.)
