Order 1 Rule 10(2) CPC | Bombay HC Permits Impleadment of Proper Parties Even Without Relief Claim to Ensure Complete Adjudication

The Bombay High Court ruled that parties whose rights are directly affected in a dispute can be impleaded under Order 1 Rule 10(2) CPC, even if no relief is sought against them. This ensures all relevant parties are before the court for a comprehensive resolution, preventing fragmented litigation and protecting third-party interests.
