Thereafter, the petitioner filed interrogatories seeking the detail regarding the legal heirs of original tenant. The said application was dismissed.

interrogatories sought to be served on the respondents, we are of the view that nothing prevents the petitioner from filing a petition for direction to furnish the details of the legal heirs. O.P.(RC) No.1/2021 4

prevent the petitioner from impleading any legal heirs and the Rent Controller shall also insist the legal heirs of the original tenant to furnish the details of the legal heirs to the petitioner.
