A party cannot be impleaded in an ongoing suit against the wishes of the plaintiff unless they are deemed a necessary or proper party under Order 1 Rule 10 CPC.
The court emphasized that necessary and proper parties must be included for effective adjudication, and the trial court erred in denying the petitioners' impleadment.
The court held that the impleadment of parties is permissible only if they are necessary or proper for effective adjudication, and claims for probate must adhere to limitation periods.
Presence of parties in litigation requires a demonstrated direct interest in the subject matter as per Order 1 Rule 10(2) of CPC.
A subsequent transferee with a registered sale deed must be allowed to protect her interests in ongoing litigation, demonstrating both necessity and direct interest in the subject matter.
