You have file suit for partition in the Original Side of the Hiih Court for one State. For other State in another High Court.

I disagree. You have to file one comprehensive suit for partition comprising all the properties in diffferent states in one civil court having territorial jurisdiction over a part of the properties. This is laid down by Sec.17 of CPC. If you do it in different courts by way of two suits,both of them will be dismissed on the ground of partial partition,which is a very serious technical and incurable defect.

The suit can be filed in any state, in the court where any part of the property is situated. One single suit is to be filed for all the properties. I agree with S. Subramanian sir's reply.
