JUSTICE BISWANATH RATH

ORDER
Order 19.5.2022 No. 1. 1. Learned counsel for the Petitioner.
2. The CMP involves rejection of the Application under Order
1 Rule 10(2) of C.P.C. undisputedly at the instance of Defendant
No.1.
3. Learned counsel for the Petitioner submitted that the above
Application was moved on the premises that not only the Plaintiffs
brought some of the subsequent Purchasers, as Defendants for
consideration of the suit involved but they have deliberately omitted
certain other Purchasers from the Plaintiffs involving the suit
property. Learned counsel for the Petitioner opposing to the rejection
of such Application contended that looking to the nature of relief of
perpetual injunction involved therein involving the very same
property since other Parties have already come into possession, it
becomes the duty of the Plaintiffs to bring such Parties to at least to
// 2 //
have effective adjudication of the suit. Taking this Court to the plea
taken in the Written Statement, learned counsel for the Petitioner
also contended that this Defendant has already a clear pleading on
this aspect. It is also alleged, in spite of such clear pleading in the
Written Statement, the Plaintiffs are not setting their Brief in order
compelling the Defendants to bring such Party to at least prevent any
risk to it by virtue of decree passed in favour of the Plaintiffs. It is in
the above backgrounds, learned counsel for the Petitioner contested
the impugned order and requested this Court for interfering with the
impugned order and set aside the same thereby allowing such
Application involved therein.
4. Considering the contentions of the learned counsel for the
Petitioner and looking to the nature of the suit, this Court finds,
undisputedly the suit involves a decree of perpetual injunction. This
Court finds, even though learned counsel for the Petitioner is
justified saying, in the event the relief granted involving perpetual
injunction in the execution of suit decree ultimately the Party sought
to be added by the Defendants will be a necessary Party. This Court
observes, it is for the Plaintiffs to set their Brief in right direction not
only that, to bring real Contestants to get effective adjudication and
in no case, it becomes the responsibility of the Defendants to attempt
to cure the defects committed by the Plaintiffs. For the opinion of
// 3 //
this Court, in the event the Plaintiffs have major defects leading to
no effective execution of decree, if any, passed and even after the
defects are brought to the notice are not even cured after the
pleadings have been brought in Written Statement, the Plaintiffs
have to suffer for not taking appropriate step. Law is fairly settled
that the Plaintiffs have to stand on their own legs. It is up to the
Plaintiffs to proceed with their own case.
5. This Court for the above observation finds, there is no
ground to interfere with the impugned order except observing, the
judgment, if any, passed in the suit involved herein shall be binding
only on the Parties.
6. The CMP stands disposed of accordingly.
