P.K. NARAYANAN RAJA vs AMBIKA AND ANR.

The Supreme Court set aside the judgments of the Trial Court, First Appellate Court, and High Court regarding a suit for declaration and permanent injunction over immovable properties, directing that the matter be included in an ongoing partition suit (O.S. No.46/1986). The Court emphasized the necessity of adjudicating all family properties in one civil suit to avoid multiplicity of proceedings. The Court granted liberty to the parties to amend their pleadings in the pending suit to include the properties in question, ensuring a comprehensive resolution of the disputes.
