Introduction
Drafting is the primary stage, of writing. A good writing is an
outcome of a good draft. The principles of good drafting and good
writing are identical. The principles of good writing irrespective
of the purpose are the same, though the subsidiary rules differ
according to the different purpose of working.
Pleadings are the backbone of legal profession. It is a
paramount requirement of a good lawyer to be proficient in the art
of pleadings. The eminent Jurists have time and again stressed the
need that the pleadings should be concised and to the point.
Therefore, it goes without saying that a successful lawyer should
have the clear grasp of principles of pleading. As per Order VI,
Rule 1 of the First Schedule of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908,
Pleading means plaint or written statement. The plaint is a
document for instituting a suit in the proper court i of law. It is
a very important document which is drafted by a pleader in
consultation with his client A civil suit shall be instituted by
presenting a plaint to the court. There are different grades of
courts in a State according to pecuniary, territorial or other
exclusive jurisdiction with regard to the subject-matter. Every
suit shall be instituted in the competent court. A written
statement is the reply filed by the defendant to answer the claim
and pleas raised by the plaintiff in his plaint, which is sent to
the defendant along with the summons calling upon him to put up
appearance at the first hearing of the suit The summons indicates
the name of the Judge presiding in the trial court and the number
of the suit. The defendant on receipt of the plaint files para-wise
reply of the plaint, which is called written statement. RESEARCH
