      Defendant No.3 in O.S. No.51 of 1997 of the court learned<\/p>\n
Additional Sub Judge, Thiruvananthapuram has come up with this<\/p>\n
Writ Petition challenging Ext.P6, order allowing amendment of<\/p>\n
plaint to enhance the claim for compensation from Rs.3 lakhs to<\/p>\n
Rs.10 lakhs based on certain subsequent developments. Parties<\/p>\n
are referred to as plaintiffs and defendants as in the trial court for<\/p>\n
convenience.\n<\/p>\n
      2.   Plaintiffs filed Ext.P1, O.P(Ind.) No.46 of 1991 against<\/p>\n
defendants in the court below claiming damages to the tune of<\/p>\n
Rs.3 lakhs alleging that on account of indigency they are not able<\/p>\n
to pay court fee payable on that claim. It is the case of plaintiffs<\/p>\n
that on account of negligence of defendant Nos.2 and 3 in<\/p>\n
performing cesarean      operation on original plaintiff No.1 (Nalini<\/p>\n
Devi) on 29.11.1988 she suffered injury. It is also stated that on<\/p>\n
account of negligence or defective operation plaintiff No.2, the<\/p>\n
child also suffered   permanent disability.    Accordingly, plaintiffs<\/p>\n
claimed compensation. Plaintiffs were permitted to sue as indigent<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                  -: 2 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
persons and the case was registered as O.S. No.51 of 1997. It<\/p>\n
would appear that      as directed by learned Sub Judge plaintiffs<\/p>\n
produced a fresh plaint while Ext.P1, Original Petition remained in<\/p>\n
tact. While so, suit as against defendant No.2 happened to be<\/p>\n
dismissed for want of steps and that was restored to file.<\/p>\n
Defendant No.2 challenged that order in W.P(C) No.24883 of 2007<\/p>\n
which this Court dismissed on 11.2.2010 Order restoring the suit<\/p>\n
as against defendant No.2 was confirmed.        As per order on I.A.<\/p>\n
No.5669     of 2003 learned Sub Judge observed that Ext.P1,<\/p>\n
Original Petition will be treated as the plaint. While so plaintiff<\/p>\n
No.2 and 3 (plaintiff No.1 – Nalini Devi died on 16.2.2003) filed I.A.<\/p>\n
No.3213 of 2010 on 8.6.2010 seeking amendment of plaint to<\/p>\n
incorporate paragraphs 22(A) and 22(B) alleging that on account<\/p>\n
of the after effects of the defective operation plaintiff No.1-Nalini<\/p>\n
Devi died on 16.2.2003 and that plaintiff No.2 has also suffered<\/p>\n
serious disability  on account of the said act.       Compensation<\/p>\n
claimed was sought to be enhanced to Rs.10,00,000\/-. Before<\/p>\n
that application was filed, plaintiffs had issued a notice to the<\/p>\n
defendants claiming enhanced compensation.               Defendants<\/p>\n
opposed I.A. No.3213 of 2010 on various grounds. Learned Sub<\/p>\n
Judge vide Ext.P8, order has allowed the application and<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                 -: 3 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
permitted plaintiffs to incorporate paragraphs 22(A) and 22(B) in<\/p>\n
the plaint. That order is under challenge in this Writ Petition at<\/p>\n
the instance of defendant No.3. Learned counsel for petitioner<\/p>\n
raised the following contentions: (1)    Relief  sought    to  be<\/p>\n
incorporated by way of amendment has become barred by<\/p>\n
limitation and hence learned Sub Judge was not correct in<\/p>\n
allowing those reliefs to be incorporated by way of amendment<\/p>\n
which prejudiced interest of defendants.     (2)  In Ext.P4, order<\/p>\n
learned Sub Judge had directed that Ext.P1 will be treated as<\/p>\n
plaint. That plaint contained only 17 paragraphs before dealing<\/p>\n
with the cause of action while    Ext.P2, contained 22 paragraphs<\/p>\n
and plaintiffs were allowed to incorporate paragraph 22(A) and 22<\/p>\n
(B) before dealing with cause of action and what is allowed by<\/p>\n
way of amendment is to incorporate paragraphs 22(A) and 22(B)<\/p>\n
in Ext.P2 which is not treated by the learned Sub Judge as the<\/p>\n
plaint to be proceeded with. Hence the method adopted by the<\/p>\n
learned Sub Judge is not correct.   (3)  Since   new   relief has<\/p>\n
been incorporated by way of amendment fresh leave of the court<\/p>\n
to sue as indigent person is required.       Learned counsel for<\/p>\n
defendant No.2 has supported the contentions raised by counsel<\/p>\n
of petitioner-defendant No.3.    Learned counsel for respondent<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                  -: 4 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
Nos.1 and 2-plaintiff Nos.2 and 3 contended       that even if cause<\/p>\n
of action has become barred by limitation there is no bar in<\/p>\n
allowing the plaint to be amended.       It is also contended that<\/p>\n
amendment was allowed with respect to Ext.P2, plaint and there<\/p>\n
is nothing wrong in proceeding with Ext.P2, plaint.<\/p>\n
       3.   It is not disputed that what is sought to be<\/p>\n
incorporated by amendment vide I.A.No.3213 of 2010 is based on<\/p>\n
events subsequent to the filing of the suit and which according to<\/p>\n
plaintiff Nos.2 and 3 are the after effects of the alleged defective<\/p>\n
operation and allied matters. It is true that as against Ext.P1 and<\/p>\n
P2 now enhancement is claimed to the extent of Rs.10 lakhs.<\/p>\n
This Court in Kunheedu v. Marakkar & Others (1989 [1]<\/p>\n
KLJ 92) has stated that though it is the general rule that<\/p>\n
amendment for incorporating new cause of action or a new relief<\/p>\n
if it would be barred by limitation on the filing of a fresh suit does<\/p>\n
not merit acceptance, court can still permit amendment if it is<\/p>\n
necessary in the interest of justice or to decide            the real<\/p>\n
controversy between parties. One of the guidelines which can be<\/p>\n
gathered from the decisions is to check up whether the party had<\/p>\n
already laid factual foundation in his pleadings for such<\/p>\n
contention. Then the court should not lightly dismiss the prayer<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                  -: 5 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
for amendment when the amendment is to introduce something<\/p>\n
which is only of a formal character. Same view was taken by the<\/p>\n
Supreme Court in Pankaja & Another v. Yellappa (D)<\/a><\/p>\n
by Lrs. & Others (2004 [2] KLJ 660) where it is held that even<\/p>\n
though relief is barred by limitation amendment of pleadings can<\/p>\n
be allowed in appropriate cases if that sub-serves cause of justice<\/p>\n
and avoids further litigation. In the present there are allegations<\/p>\n
in Exts.P1 and P2 as to the manner in which defendant Nos.2 and<\/p>\n
3 are alleged to have conducted the operation. It is also stated<\/p>\n
that on account of that, Nalini Devi and her daughter (plaintiff<\/p>\n
No.2) suffered serious disabilities and Nalini Devi died on<\/p>\n
16.2.2003. According to plaintiff Nos.2 and 3 that was due to the<\/p>\n
after effects of the defective operation. Therefore it is not as if<\/p>\n
there is no factual foundation in Ext.P1 and P2 for the claim now<\/p>\n
sought to be incorporated. But considering he contentions raised<\/p>\n
by petitioner\/defendant No.3, he can be permitted to file<\/p>\n
additional written statement to the amended plaint taking up a<\/p>\n
plea of limitation also to the extent it concerned the claim for<\/p>\n
enhanced compensation.      Learned counsel for petitioner states<\/p>\n
that as permitted by this Court written statement is already filed.<\/p>\n
I make it clear that court below shall decide at the time of final<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                  -: 6 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
disposal of the suit       whether    plea of limitation raised by<\/p>\n
petitioner\/defendant No.3 can be accepted on the facts of the<\/p>\n
case and in the light of the relevant decisions on the point.<\/p>\n
       4.    Next objection is that amendment          is sought to<\/p>\n
Ext.P2, plaint while in Ext.P4, order learned Sub Judge has<\/p>\n
observed that      Ext.P1 will be treated as the plaint.      Learned<\/p>\n
counsel invited my attention to Order XXXIII Rule 8 of the Code<\/p>\n
which states that when application to sue as indigent person is<\/p>\n
granted, the application on which special leave is granted shall be<\/p>\n
numbered and registered and shall be deemed to be the plaint in<\/p>\n
the suit. Reference is made by learned counsel to paragraph 5 of<\/p>\n
Ext.P4, order where it is stated that “hereafter the OP originally<\/p>\n
filed will be considered as plaint”. But I must also bear in mind<\/p>\n
that Ext.P2, plaint was filed not at the option of plaintiff Nos.2 and<\/p>\n
3 but as ordered by the learned Sub Judge as seen from Ext.P4. It<\/p>\n
is as per direction of the learned Sub Judge that plaintiffs<\/p>\n
produced fresh pliant (Ext.P2).      Now as it stands Ext.P2, plaint<\/p>\n
contains 22 paragraphs before the portion dealing with cause of<\/p>\n
action and I.A. No.3213 of 2010 was filed to incorporate<\/p>\n
paragraph 22(A) and 22(B) (obviously to Ext.P2, plaint).       I leave<\/p>\n
it to the trial to decide the matter taking into account that it was<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                                 -: 7 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
as per the direction of the learned Sub Judge that Ext.P2, plaint<\/p>\n
was filed and what is referred to in Order XXXIII Rule 8 of the<\/p>\n
Code is only the procedure.\n<\/p>\n
      5.     It is pointed out by learned counsel that in Ext.P1,<\/p>\n
plaint there are six plaintiffs while in Ext.P2, there are only 3<\/p>\n
plaintiffs of whom plaintiff No.1 expired. When that defect was<\/p>\n
pointed out by defendant No.2 this Court observed that defendant<\/p>\n
No.2 can canvass that contention in the suit whatever be the<\/p>\n
worth of that contention.\n<\/p>\n
      6.     Yet another contention is that further enquiry as to<\/p>\n
the means of plaintiff Nos.2 and 3 is required since new relief is<\/p>\n
incorporated by way of amendment. I am afraid, that contention<\/p>\n
cannot be accepted. For, holding that plaintiffs have no sufficient<\/p>\n
means to pay court fee for Rs.3 lakhs they were permitted to sue<\/p>\n
as indigent persons. Now claim for compensation is enhanced to<\/p>\n
Rs.10 lakhs. That does not mean that plaintiff Nos.2 and 3 have<\/p>\n
acquired means in the meantime to pay court fee payable on the<\/p>\n
enhanced claim.     There is no case that after plaintiff Nos.2 and 3<\/p>\n
were granted leave to file the suit as indigent persons they have<\/p>\n
acquired sufficient means to pay the court fee.<\/p>\n
W.P(C) No.20646 of 2010
\n                               -: 8 :-<\/span><\/p>\n
      Resultantly, Writ Petition fails.  It is dismissed.    But<\/p>\n
Petitioner-defendant   No.3  can   challenge  the   new    relief<\/p>\n
incorporated by way of amendment on the question of limitation.<\/p>\n
