merits. The necessary party is one who ought to have been joined and in whose absence no effective decision can take place. The object of Order I, Rule 10, C.P.C. is to avoid multiplicity of proceedings and litigation and to ensure that all proper parties are before the court for proper adjudication on merits. Once the court comes to the conclusion that a person applies for becoming a party is a necessary party then the court ought to pass an order directing such person to be impleaded as party in the proceedings. Court is empowered under this provision to add any person as plaintiff or defendant in the suit at any stage and even in appeals. Joining of party at any stage is binding in all subsequent proceedings until set aside in legal manner. Order I, Rule 10, C.P.C. read with section 107, C.P.C. is even applicable to appeals and the appellate court has discretion to substitute or add any person as appellant or respondent provided they are proper and necessary party to the proceedings. The general rule with regard to impleading the parties is that the plaintiff in a suit, being dominus litis, may choose the persons against whom he wishes to litigate and cannot be compelled to sue a person against whom he does not seek any relief but a proper party is a party who, though not a necessary party but is a person whose presence would enable the court to completely, effectively and adequately adjudicate upon all matters in dispute in the suit, though he need not be a person in favour of or against whom the decree is to be made
