IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C. R. No.16 of 2009 Decided on : 07-01-2009 Chand Kaur and another ....Petitioners VERSUS Joginder Kaur and others ....Respondents CORAM:-HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASWANT SINGH. Present: Mr. P.S. Dhaliwal, Advocate for the petitioners. JASWANT SINGH, J(Oral) The petitioners have filed this petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India for setting aside the impugned order dated 09.04.2008 (annexure P-3) passed by learned District Judge, Mansa in Civil Appeal (CAD) No.11 dated 20.02.2007 titled as Joginder Kaur Vs. Kesar Singh & another, whereby the applications filed by the petitioners under Order 1 Rule 10 CPC for being impleaded as the party to the proceedings have been dismissed. The only contention raised by learned counsel for the petitioners is that in the impugned order, while rejecting his applications for being impleaded as respondent, by holding that they have no locus standi to the litigation, the learned Distt. Judge Court has recorded a finding that the petitioners are not entitled to inherit i.e. the land in question in the proceedings belonging to Smt. Bhuro @ Bharpur Kaur wife of Jang Singh. Learned counsel prays for modification of the impugned order to the extent that it precludes him for raising his claim in any subsequent or appropriate proceedings by recording a finding that he is not entitled to C. R. No.16 of 2009 -2- inherit. This Court finds that there is no illegality in the order passed by the learned trial Court while rejecting the application for impleading the petitioners. However, in the interest of justice, it is ordered that the observation made by the learned Court shall not operate to the prejudice of the petitioners in any manner in any subsequent proceedings. Dismissed. 7th January, 2009. (JASWANT SINGH) ashish JUDGE
