By the order impugned, application for amendment of the Plaint has been allowed by the Trial Court. After hearing the learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner, I find that there is no attempt made by the amendment to withdraw any admission in the pleadings. It cannot be said that the amendment is barred by limitation. The Suit has been filed prior to coming into force of proviso to Rule 17 of Order VI of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. Therefore, the Trial Court was justified in adopting a liberal approach and permitting amendment of the Plaint. : 1 : 2. No case for interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction is made out. Subject to what is observed above, Writ Petition is rejected. 3. If the Petitioner has not filed the additional written statement, he will be entitled to do so within a period of eight weeks from today. (A.S.OKA, J.)
