amendment in pleadings

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 01 June 2010 This query is : Resolved 
R/Sir,
How can I convince a Court to allowed my petition to amend the plaint which petition filed before written statement?Whether Court will allow my petition? If yes then How? Please suggest me?
H. S. Thukral (Expert) 01 June 2010
Kindly read O VI R XVII of CPC Pleading can be amended at any stage if they do not change cause of action or cause injustice to the other party. For a guidance please go through a judgment of the supreme court Air 1979(SC) 557 wherein principles have been laid down allowing amendments in pleadings.

Dear Anonymous,
I fully concur with Mr.H.S.Thukral and would like to add that the amendment in the pleading should not change the plaint totally and it should be necessary for meeting ends of justice and is not a dilactory tactic.
Best Regards
Daksh
