A J SAIKIA Advocate for : appearing for ON THE DEATH OF BABUL DAS HIS LEGAL HEIRS SMTI CHUNU DAS AND 5 ORS Linked Case : BEFORE HONOURABLE MRS. JUSTICE MARLI VANKUNG ORDER Date : 10-03-2025 Mr. A.J. Saikia, learned counsel for the applicant is present along with Mr. D. Nath, learned counsel for respondent Nos. 1(a) to 1(e). This is an application filed under Order 22 Rule 9(2), CPC r/w Section 151 for setting aside abatement and for substitution of the legal heirs of the opposite party No. 1 Babul Das in the connected MFA No. 137/2017. The learned counsel for the applicant submits that on the demise of respondent No. 1 Babul Das in the connected MFA No. 137/2017, he has been allowed to be substituted by his legal heirs, who are the wife and children of the Page No.# 7/7 deceased and hence, he prayed that the abatement may be set aside. No objection is raised by the learned counsel for the opposite party. In view of the above, this Court on finding that the deceased Babul Das is allowed to be represented by his legal heirs in the connected MFA No. 137/2017 in I.A.(Civil) No. 3320/2019 dated 10.03.2022, this Court finds it fit for setting aside the abatement since this Court in I.A.(Civil) No. 3319/2019 had also allowed the condonation of delay in filing the application for setting aside the abatement and substitution application. Accordingly, I.A.(Civil) No. 3321/2019 stands allowed and disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
