Doctrine of Privity of Contract
Introduction
According to Section 2(h) of the Indian contract act
1872, a contract is an agreement between two
parties enforceable by law backed by some
consideration. The essence of the law of contract
lies in the promise which both parties have made
towards each other for fulfilling their part of the
contract.
Conclusion
From the above discussion, we have seen that
although only parties to contract can sue each
other and no stranger is allowed to enter between
the parties to sue. But with the development of
time, the law has also developed and now even a
stranger is permitted to sue to safeguard his
interest under exceptional circumstances.
