Anuradha @ Chanchal Kumari vs Santosh Nath Khanna on 9 April, 1975

Stay of the proceedings in such circumstances may not be a proper solution to the problem. The next alternative by which the Courts may enforce the order is to strike out the pleadings of the defaulting party. Whether it will be permissible in law for taking such a course requires consideration. The Delhi High Court in a decision , Smt. Anuradha v. Santosh Nath Channa, has observed that it is open to the Court to enforce obedience of its order or to prevent abuse of its process by staying the proceedings or striking off the defence or by temporarily suspending its operation without prejudice to any other action that may be taken according to law. The phrase "striking off the defence" would be applicable where the defendant is the defaulting party and where the plaintiff is the defaulter it naturally follows that his pleading can also be struck down for non-compliance of the order.
