M R MONDAL Vs. STATE OF WEST BENGAL

Decided On May 16, 2005
M.R.MONDAL Appellant
V/S
STATE OF WEST BENGAL Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) This revisional application under Article 227 of the Constitution of India is directed against the order impugned No. 85 dated 3.11.2003 passed by Sri S. Mukherjee, learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), Additional Court, Burdwan in connection with Title Suit No. 90 of 1999 (273 of 1998).

(2.) It appears from the order impugned that one application under Order 6 Rule 17 of the Code of Civil Procedure filed for amendment of the plaint on 22.3.2002. The learned Trial Judge was pleased to reject the said amendment petition. In dealing with the matter the learned Trial Judge found that the petitioner had filed the application for amendment of the plaint in view of the order passed by the Hon'ble Apex Court on 3.9.2001. He has referred to an order of the Apex Court appearing at page No. 78, 79 and 80 of the petition and came to the conclusion that the prayers made in the petition for amendment of the plaint are in violation of the decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court. I may quote the relevant portion of the finding of the learned Trial Judge in this regard which runs as below :

(3.) I am really dismayed at the treatment of the amendment application by the learned Trial Judge. He has ignored the basic tenets of writing the order in this regard. There is absolutely nothing in his order as to what was stated by the Hon'ble Apex Court in its Judgment or what was the plaint case and what are the amendments sought for and ultimately how the prayers in the amendment application are in violation of the decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court.
