Chander Kanta Bansal vs Rajinder Singh Anand on 11 March, 2008

In view of the tests laid down by the Apex Court in the judgments referred supra as to what amounts to exercise of 'due diligence', the petitioner in the present case did not aver anything in the entire affidavit as to how she exercised due diligence and despite exercise of due diligence, she could not bring those facts on record before commencement of trial. When the petitioner did not raise such plea in the affidavit filed along with this petition, the question of substantiating the same does not arise and in fact, both the parties went into trial, despite denial of title of this petitioner by the respondents about 10 years ago. Suggestions were also put to the witnesses denying the title of the petitioner. But, they did not open their eyes and slept over for a considerable 13 NJS, J crp_291_2022 period of time and when defendants witnesses are to be cross- examined, the petitioner realized the mistake she committed in seeking relief and filed petition under Order VI Rule 17 C.P.C to raise a plea that the document sued upon is fabricated, though a specific plea is raised that the document is created one, without explaining as to how she exercised due diligence and failed to take such steps.

Salem Advocate Bar Association,Tamil ... vs Union Of India on 2 August, 2005

So with the amendment of Order VI Rule 17 CPC and introduction of proviso, the petitioner seeking amendment after commencement of trial shall, convince the Court that inspite of due diligence, he could not have raised the matter before commencement of trial. So in my considered opinion, the yardstick for considering the amendment petition filed after commencement of trial is not only whether a separate suit on same facts and for same relief is not time barred as laid down in Sampath Kumar2, but also whether the petitioner could show plausible cause that inspite of due diligence, he could not raise the matter before commencement of the trial. So to sum up, the amendment petition filed after commencement of trial no doubt can be considered, provided, the petitioner could establish that inspite of exercising due diligence he could not file the petition before commencement of the trial and a separate suit on same cause of action for the same relief could be maintainable. In the instant case, as already observed, the petitioner could not show any plausible cause for the inordinate delay. Hence the petition merits no consideration."
