Under Order 9, Rule 7, C.P.C, the court can permit the petitioners to participate in the proceedings from the date they appear. For the said purpose, they need not show any good or sufficient cause. Even without written statement, they could be permitted to cross-examine witnesses and also adduce evidence.
