Rule 1 of CPC : Rule 1: Who May Be Joined As Plaintiffs

Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where three individuals, Alice, Bob, and Charlie, have all invested in a real estate project by a developer named XYZ Corp. The project has been delayed and none of them have received the apartments they were promised. Since their claims are based on the same series of transactions (investment in the same real estate project) and there would be common legal and factual questions involved (such as the reasons for the delay and the developer's liability), they can join together in one lawsuit against XYZ Corp. as plaintiffs. This would be in accordance with Rule 1 of The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, which allows multiple persons to be joined as plaintiffs if they are seeking relief related to the same act or transaction and common questions would arise if they sued separately.
