JUDGEMENT
SYAMAL KANTI CHAKRABARTI, J. -
(1.) In the present revisional application under Article 227 of the
Constitution the legality and propriety of the order dated 23rd May, 2003
passed by the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), 2nd Court at Bankura
in Title Suit No. 25 of 2002 has been assailed.
(2.) The plaintiffs/ petitioners have claimed that they filed the above
title suit being 25 of 2002 praying for a declaration that they are
absolute owners of disputed plot of land measuring 34 decimals in
plot no. 381/2202 pertaining to L.R. Khatian no. 844 as per Ka
schedule and 8.5 decimal of land pertaining to L.R. Khatian no.
381/2202 as at Kha schedule to the plaint by virtue of a
registered sale deed dated 11.07.1985 with prayer for permanent
injunction. During pendency of the suit they filed one application
under Order 6 Rule 17 read with Section 151 CPC praying for
certain amendment of the plaint as well as the prayer which was
opposed by the defendants.
(3.) After hearing both parties by order no. 25 dated 23.05.2003 the
learned Trial Court has rejected the petition on the ground that
the said disputed plot no. 381/2202 was the subject-matter of one
previously instituted suit being T. S. No. 84/1989 which was
decreed in favour of the present defendants and in the said suit
the present plaintiff as D.W.-1 has admitted that there was no
gate or door on the southern side of the boundary and he has no
claim over the said gate. In Title Appeal no. 59/1993 arising out of
the said title suit the plaintiffs filed amendment petition which
was rejected. Therefore, the decision taken in the aforesaid suit
and trial has already reached its finality and by allowing such
prayer for amendment in the present suit the matter already
decided cannot be reopened which will, if allowed, change the
nature and character of the suit.;
