Description
The book "Civil Pleadings and Practice" is a very important book for all the persons interested in the subject and also the Bar and the Bench alike. It is needless to mention that the Pleadings in a litigation from the basis and the foundation of the litigation. Any amount of proof without a Pleadings is of no consequence. Hence the drafting of pleadings is the most important and essential function of practicing advocates. An Advocate is expected to draft the pleadings carefully and cautiously. In all original Courts the new entrants of the bar are expected to get sufficient experience in the drafting of pleadings in a senior's office. This aspect itself shows that this book is of utmost importance to the Bar, Bench and such others interested in the subject. I have taken care to see that several model forms are in- corporated at the appropriate places apart from giving short commentary at the relevant places. This book may be of immense use to the Bar and the Bench especially to the new entrants into the profession.  I hope that this book will be received well by all the concerned.
