U.P. Pollution Control Board vs Modi Distillery & Ors on 6 August, 1987

Learned   counsel   for   the   respondent   cited   the   decision   of   the   apex   court   in   U.P.   Pollution Control Board v. Modi Distillery, to support his argument for the   right to amend the complaint. This decision also has been distinguished in   the   above   decision   of   this   court   and   this   court   has   held   that   the   amendment to implied the company cannot be ordered.  Therefore, as the   view   of   this   court   is   that   the   company   or   partnership   cannot   be   subsequently   impleaded   to   set   right   the   defect   in   the   proceedings,   the   respondent/complainant   is   not   entitled   to   seek   for   amendment   of   the    complaint.   So,   as   on   today,   the   proceedings   under  Section      138   of   the    Negotiable Instruments Act against the petitioners is defective for the non­ prosecution   of   K.   S.   Muthu   Constructions.  Hence,   the   petitioners   alone   cannot be prosecuted for the alleged offence and for this non­compliance   with the provision, the petitioners are certainly entitled to be discharged.   Though the grounds raised before the lower court do not confer a right for   discharge of the petitioners, the point raised in this court by the revision   petitioners certainly enables them to be discharged from the proceedings."
