(a) Civil Procedure Code (V of 1908)--- ----O.VII, R.11---Specific Relief Act (I of 1877), S.12---Rejection of plaint---Scope---Suit for specific performance on the basis of agreement to sell---Plaint of such suit could be rejected under O.VII, R.11, C.P.C. which provision did not place any such restriction, rather laid down that an incompetent suit must be buried if found falling within the ambit of O.VII, R.11, C.P.C.
