The plaintiff has filed a suit for recovery of money. On service of summons, defendants have appeared through counsel and filed the written statement. On the basis of the pleadings of the parties, the trial Court has framed the issues, parties have adduced their evidence and posted for evidence. At that time, plaintiff has filed an application in IA No.9 under order 6 Rule 17 CPC seeking amendment of the plaint, on the ground that there is typographical error in mentioning the date and cheque number. The same has been allowed by the trial Court by the impugned order. The trial Court has not given any reason for allowing that application. The impugned order is not a speaking order and same is passed without application of mind. On this short ground, the writ petition is allowed. 3. The impugned order dated 24-01-2025 passed on IA No.9 in OS No.4104/2022 by the trial Court is set aside. 4.
