BEDI, J. (ORAL) The petitioner-plaintiff has filed this petition challenging the order dated 16.8.2011, dismissing the application under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC, filed by the petitioner seeking the amendment of plaint to challenge the validity of sale deed dated 25.7.2005, bearing Vasika No.3789 whereas the plaintiff-petitioner . . . 1 C.R. No.5569 of 2011 (O&M) had already challenged another sale deed dated 25.7.2005 bearing Vasika No.3790, in favour of Harbans Kaur and Jasmer Kaur. Counsel for the petitioner has submitted that the plaintiff-petitioner came to know about the sale deed dated 25.7.2007, with Vasika No.3789 when RW.3 appeared in the Court on 30.4.2011. I have heard the counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the respondents. Originally the plaintiff-petitioner had filed a suit for mere declaration that he is owner in joint possession to the extent of 1/4th share in the property mentioned in the plaint being the grandson of Puran Singh. He was permitted to amend the suit to incorporate the challenge to one sale deed dated 25.7.2005 in favour of Harbans Kaur and Jasmer Kaur in the year 2005. The trial proceeded till 2011 but during that period of six years, it is not believable that the plaintiff was not aware of another sale deed dated 25.7.2005 in favour of Harbans Kaur and Jasmer Kaur who are none else but father's brothers wives. The trial Court has rightly dismissed the application for amendment as the amendment had been sought after a long delay after the commencement of the suit. Dismissed.
