    Following order is passed on Ch/S No.2349/2019-
    O R D E R
    1.     The plaintiff has taken out this Ch/S under order 6 rule 17 of CPC for carrying out amendment in the plaint. By way of proposed amendment plaintiff is seeking permission to incorporate contention regarding filing of PIL and amendment in the MRTP Act in the year 2017. So also plaintiff is seeking amendment in the prayer clause by inserting (para 69, l-i). It is contended that the proposed amendment is respect of subsequent events i.e. filing of PIL and amendment in the MRTP Act. It is further contended that  the proposed amendment is necessary for complete and effective adjudication of dispute involved in the suit.
    2.    Adv. for defendant/ corporation opposed application. It is contended that by way of proposed amendment plaintiff want to insert amendment in the law. However, law point can be argued and need not to be plead. The matter is old and plaintiff is purposely delaying the suit and Ch/S is taken out at delayed stage. The other defendant have not filed reply.
    3.     Heard Adv. for the plaintiff and defendant/ BMC. Perused Ch/S, affidavit in support thereof and documents on record.
    4.     The plaintiff has taken out the Ch/S for amendment in the plaint. The plaintiff is seeking permission to incorporate contentions in respect of filing of PIL in Hon\''ble High Court and contentions as to amendment in the MRTP Act. In this suit issues are framed but trial of the suit is not commenced. It is well settled that the amendment of pleading at pretrial stage should be normally allowed if no any prejudice or injustice is caused to the other side and if the nature of the Suit is not likely to be changed as result of the amendment. In this case the Suit is at pretrial stage. The defendant/ corporation opposed application on ground that law need not to be pleaded . However, while considering the application for amendment merits of the proposed amendment cannot be gone into. It is well settled that Court has to be liberal in permitting amendment unless serious injustice or irreparable loss is caused to the other side. So also if nature of the suit is not likely to be changed as a result of amendment it should normally be permitted. Delay in taking out amendment application cannot be ground to reject the  prayer of amendment. In the case in hand it appears that the proposed amendment is just and necessary for effective and complete adjudication of the dispute. The nature of Suit is not likely to be changed if the proposed amendment is allowed. Therefore, Ch/S deserves to be allowed. Hence, I pass following order-
    O R D E R
    1.     Ch/S No.2349/2019 is allowed in terms of prayer clause(a).
    2.     Plaintiff to carry out necessary amendment within a one week.
    3.     Copy of amended plaint be served upon other side.
    4.     Ch/S No.2349/2019 stands disposed of accordingly.
    Earlier order, if any, to continue till next date.
