2. I.A. No.238 of 2017 was filed under Order 6 Rule 17 CPC for amending the plaint, especially the prayer. It is the case of the first respondent/plaitiff that Thai sai Nala Vidudhi Dharmastapanam Society was registered as Society No.243 of 1973 with one Chellappa Chetty as its president. This society purchased the house site from one Sadasivam on 04.03.1976. A building was constructed by the society for housing a maternity home and it came to be stopped when it reached lintel level and the building could not be completed for want of funds. The president and other members of society have become dormant. The first respondent is the surviving member of the said society and he is one among the founding members of the society. The second petitioner had registered a fake society in the name of Thai sai Nala Vidudhi Dharmastapanam in registration No.426 of 1999 and again he registered another fake society in registration No.560 of 2005. With the help of these fake societies, he created a rental agreement dated 22.02.2008 in favour of his driver, the third respondent herein, and he executed a lease deed dated 06.03.2008 in favour of his son, the fourth respondent. Not only that he executed a settlement deed in respect of the suit property in favour of his son, the fourth respondent on 08.01.2013l The fourth respondent filed a suit in O.S. No.3 of 2014 on the file of Sub Court, Poonamallee, claiming title to the suit property on the basis of a registered settlement deed dated 08.01.2013. The second petitioner and the fourth respondent created encumbrance over the suit property by creating settlement deed dated 08.01.2013. Originally the suit was filed for relief of declaration that the rental agreement dated 22.02.2008 in favour of the third respondent and lease agreement dated 06.02.2008 in favour of the fourth respondent to be declared as null and void and not binding the original society namely,Thai Sai Nala Viduthi Dharmastapanam, registered as society No.243 of 1973. In view of the execution of settlement deed by the second petitioner in favour of his son, the fourth petitioner, in respect of the suit property, there is a necessity to amend the plaint and the prayer by including the following reliefs:

“(C-1) declaring that the settlement deed dated 08.01.2013 registered as Document No.406/2013 executed by 3rd defendant in favour of 5th defendant is null and void and not acted upon.
