5. Written statements were filed by both the defendants.

The defendant No.1 – Society had made 1800 plots and allotted the same to its members and out of that 1100 plots were conveyed through registered sale deeds and the members of the defendant No.1 – Society were in possession of the plots from the date of their respective allotment / conveyance.

9. Heard Sri S.M.Saifullah, learned counsel representing Sri P.V.V.Gopala Krishna Murthy, learned counsel for the petitioners on record and Ms.S.Sirisha, learned counsel representing Sri D.Gnaneswara Naidu, learned counsel for the petitioner on record in C.R.P.No.1662 of 2019 and Sri Satish Parasaran, learned Senior Counsel representing G.Arun, learned counsel for the respondent No.1 –

plaintiff on record.

10. Learned counsel for the petitioners – proposed defendants submitted that the petitioners or their vendors purchased the said plots much prior to the filing of the above four suits by respondent No.1. By then, their rights were accrued. The trial court failed to understand the scope of Order I Rule 10 of CPC and came to a wrong conclusion and observed that if the applications filed by the petitioners were allowed, it would lead to multiplicity of proceedings. If the petitioners were impleaded as one of the defendants in the suit, it would avoid multiplicity of litigation and the Court could adjudicate the rights of all the parties
