Lalita Savekar h/f Kulkarni and Associates for plaintiff present. Adv. Sakshi Agarwal for Deft. No.2 and 3 present. She tendered VP. TOR. Exh.5. Heard both the sides on NM No.2740/19. Perused NM. Admittedly the defendants were served on 23.08.2018, however, the defendant appeared in the matter and inspite of granting sufficient time they have failed to file WS. During course of argument Ld. Advocate fairly conceded that if this court is of view of condone the delay then cost may be imposed. Admittedly the suit is for partition and not proceeded further and trial is yet to begin. Thus, looking to the nature of proceedings, it is desirable that the suit should be decided on merit. The inconvenience caused can be compensated by awarding reasonable cost. Thus, I pass the following order. NM is allowed in terms of prayer clause (a) and (b) subject to payment of total amount of Rs.2500/ by the defendants to the plaintiff. Upon payment of the cost defendant are allowed to file their WS will be taken on record. Costs in cause. NM is disposed of accordingly. Cost paid. WS taken on record. Matter stands adjourned to 31.03.2022 for issues. Judge -- 1 of 1 --
