Order 6 Rule 17 CPC | Bona Fide Correction of Property Description in Plaint Does Not Alter Suit’s Nature : Calcutta HC
Calcutta High Court rules that amending a plaint to correct bona fide errors in property description-such as miscalculations or location clarifications-does not change the fundamental nature of a possession suit. The decision reinforces that procedural fairness under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC prioritizes substantive justice over technicalities, provided the amendment does not introduce new claims or alter the suit’s core relief.
