In respect of matter arising under Section 24 of the Act, there is no provision in the Code of Civil Procedure expressly prohibiting that the remedy, prescribed in Order 11 would not be available to interlocutory proceedings.

The Court can, therefore, under Section 151, permit interrogatories being served to shorten the prolonged course of interlocutory proceedings.
