This is an application under Order 22 Rule 4 and 11 of Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 for substitution of the legal heirs of the deceased respondent No.11. It appears that during the pendency of the writ petition, the respondent No.11 had expired on 02.03.2022 and therefore the instant Page No.# 7/7 application for impleading the legal heirs of the deceased respondent No.11 has been filed. The names of the legal heirs of the deceased respondent No.11 are as hereunder: - (i) Smt. Bhabani Kakati (Wife) (ii) Shri Mukut Kakati (Son) (iii) Shri Dwipen Kakati (Son) (iv) Shri Nitul Kakati (Son) (v) Smt. Pinky Baishya (Daughter-in-law) It appears that the respondent No.11 is required to be substituted by the aforesaid legal representatives. Accordingly, the interlocutory application seeking substitution of the legal heirs of respondent No.11 is allowed. Let amended Cause Title with the substituted names of the legal heirs of the deceased respondent No.11 be submitted before the Registry for doing the needful. The Interlocutory application accordingly stands disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
