It is a curable defect under Or. VII Rule 10 CPC, the adjudicating court has to accept duplicate copy of plaint.

This was inserted by the Amendment Act 2002 for the purpose of enabling the court to retain the duplicate in the court in case of appeal, and not a big issue.

Yes, it is a curable defect and hence, Rule 11, Order VII is of no application.

The defect is curable hence there is no legal infirmity in court rejecting the application filed seeking to reject the plaint for this defect.
You may not get a favorable order even if you approach high court for this reason alone
