PURAN RAM vs BHAGURAM

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's reversal of the trial court's order allowing an amendment to the plaint in a specific performance suit was erroneous. The Court emphasized that under Order 6 Rule 17 of the Code of Civil Procedure, amendments should be allowed to correct mistakes in the description of the property, especially when it does not change the nature of the suit. The Court reinstated the trial court's order, allowing the amendment to correct the description of the suit property under Section 26 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963.
