MUKESH KUMAR S/O PYRELAL MANDAL R/O KATDHAR, P.S.- MOJAHIDPUR, DISTT.- BHAGALPUR 8. RAJESH KUMAR SINGH S/O RAMESHWAR PRASAD SINGH R/O KATDHAR, P.S.- MOJAHIDPUR, DISTT.- BHAGALPUR ----------- 02. 24.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner is stated to be the defendant in the suit. The plaintiff/respondent filed the suit seeking a direction for registration of the sale-deed executed, but not registered, in respect of specified lands. While the suit remained pending, persons claiming through the petitioner/defendant sold certain lands which were the subject matter of the sale-deed. The plaintiff/respondent then filed an application under Order 1 Rule 10 to add the persons claiming through the petitioner and the vendees as party to the suit which has been allowed. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that those who have been added as to party do not 2 form subject matter of the present suit. The suit was only for registration of a title deed. Those impleded are strangers to the suit. The order creates an entirely new cause of action foreign to the present suit. The Court is satisfied that, if those who have been permitted to be added as party have nexus with the lands which were the subject matter of the sale deed in respect of which the suit had been filed, the present order shall necessarily shorten litigation by bringing all parties and issues with regard to the lands in question together for a final adjudicatory decision. If the order dated 21.6.2010 were to be set aside it shall only result in multiplicity of suits when the plaintiff/respondent shall file more than one suit against each vendor and vendee. The application is dismissed. P.K. ( Navin Sinha, J.)
