Decided On August 09, 1982
BHASKAR CHANDRA BEHERA Appellant
V/S
RANITAL RICE MILL CO. Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) This revision is directed against an order of the Munsif, Bhadrak, rejecting an application for amendment of the written statements filed by defendants 1, 2 and 3.

(2.) The plaintiff instituted a suit for declaration of title, confirmation of possession; in the alternative for recovery of possession and injunction. The suit properties are comprised in two Schedules 'A' and 'B' which originally belonged to the Behera family. Long before 1928, the members had amicably divided the property by partition by metes and bounds setting apart a tank and the road for common use. In view of the partition, in the record-of-rights of 1928, the property stood separately recorded as per the allotment.

(3.) Schedule 'A' property passing through various hands in course of transactions ultimately reached the plaintiff who purchased the same by a registered sale deed dated 7-1-1963.
