Petitioner is the plaintiff in O.S<\/p>\n<p>No.355 on the file of the Munsiff Court, Payyannur.<\/p>\n<p>Suit   is    for   fixation   of   boundaries,   and  the<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C).No.31937 OF 2008     Page numbers<\/p>\n<p>respondents      are   the  defendants    in  the  suit.<\/p>\n<p>Respondents filed their written statement resisting<\/p>\n<p>the suit claim.      Plaintiff moved three applications<\/p>\n<p>seeking     impleadment    of    survey    officials  as<\/p>\n<p>additional     defendants   8   and    9  in  the  suit,<\/p>\n<p>consequential amendment on such impleadment in the<\/p>\n<p>plaint, and also for dispensing the notice under<\/p>\n<p>Section 80 of the Code of Civil Procedure on<\/p>\n<p>impleading     of   survey  officials.      The  learned<\/p>\n<p>Munsiff passed separate orders on the respective<\/p>\n<p>applications, dismissing all of them.        Exts.P7, P8<\/p>\n<p>and P9 are the copies of the orders passed on the<\/p>\n<p>respective applications by the learned Munsiff.<\/p>\n<p>Propriety     and   correctness  of    those orders  are<\/p>\n<p>challenged     in   the  writ   petition   invoking  the<\/p>\n<p>supervisory jurisdiction vested with this court<\/p>\n<p>under Article 227 of the Constitution of India.<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C).No.31937 OF 2008     Page numbers<\/p>\n<p>          3.     I heard the counsel on both sides.<\/p>\n<p>The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted<\/p>\n<p>that    impleadment     of  the   survey   officials   as<\/p>\n<p>additional defendants 8 and 9 in the suit is<\/p>\n<p>essential     for   an  adjudication    of  the  disputes<\/p>\n<p>involved and fair disposal of the suit.        Since the<\/p>\n<p>survey officials are sought to be impleaded as<\/p>\n<p>Government      officials,    it    is    submitted,  an<\/p>\n<p>application was filed to dispense notice under<\/p>\n<p>Section 80 of the Code of Civil Procedure. I find<\/p>\n<p>no impropriety or illegality in the order passed by<\/p>\n<p>the court below dismissing the application moved by<\/p>\n<p>the   petitioner      for impleadment    of  the   survey<\/p>\n<p>officials dispensing with the notice under Section<\/p>\n<p>80 of Code of Civil Procedure.         Section 80 of the<\/p>\n<p>Code of Civil Procedure is based on public purpose<\/p>\n<p>which mandates issue of a notice to the Government<\/p>\n<p>in advance, stating the particulars of the suit<\/p>\n<p>claim,    before    any  suit   is   filed  against  the<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C).No.31937 OF 2008     Page numbers<\/p>\n<p>Government or public officer.         The object of the<\/p>\n<p>Section is to avoid unnecessary litigation.          When<\/p>\n<p>the mandate of the Section is to give notice before<\/p>\n<p>institution     of   a  suit,  after    filing  the  suit<\/p>\n<p>seeking dispensation of that notice by filing a<\/p>\n<p>petition before the court cannot be entertained. In<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bihari Chowchary and others v State of Bihar and<\/p>\n<p>others&#8221; (AIR 1984 SC 1043) the apex court has<\/p>\n<p>considered the scope of Section 80 of Code of Civil<\/p>\n<p>Procedure and it has been held that any suit filed<\/p>\n<p>against    the    Government  or    public  officer   not<\/p>\n<p>complying with the mandate of Section 80 of Code of<\/p>\n<p>Civil Procedure is not maintainable.        Further more,<\/p>\n<p>survey officials are sought to be impleaded without<\/p>\n<p>bringing the Government as an additional defendant.<\/p>\n<p>That    is   also    against  the    provisions   covered<\/p>\n<p>by   Order    27    Rule  5  of    the   Code  of   Civil<\/p>\n<p>Procedure.       Whatever be the case of plaintiff,<\/p>\n<p>for     impleadment     of   the     survey    officials,<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C).No.31937 OF 2008    Page numbers<\/p>\n<p>in view of the statutory bar, I find the orders<\/p>\n<p>passed by the learned Munsiff under Exts.P7, P8 and<\/p>\n<p>P9 are unassailable, but, I make it clear that none<\/p>\n<p>of the observations made in      this orders shall have<\/p>\n<p>any bearing in disposal of the suit on merits.<\/p>\n<p>Writ petition lacks merit, and it is dismissed.<\/p>\n<p>                                           Sd\/-\n<\/p>\n<p>                                  S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN,<br \/>\n                                          JUDGE<br \/>\n                \/\/TRUE COPY\/\/<\/p>\n<p>                                      P.A TO JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>vdv<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court A.P.V.Santhakumari vs A.P.V.
