Instant petition is for non-compliance of the initial order dated 16/07/2019 whereby Coal India Limited and subsequent allottee SECL were directed to be impleaded as a party respondent in these petitions and on that date it was directed that necessary amendment be carried out within a period of two weeks. Subsequently, when amendment was not carried out, the case was listed for default on 27/08/2019 wherein time was granted. Lastly on 24/09/2019 again time was sought for and on that date it was ordered that amendment be carried out within a week, failing which the petition shall stand dismissed without reference to the bench.

Subsequently, amendment since was not carried out, eventually dismissal order was passed.

Considering the nature of the case, application for condonation of delay is allowed and delay in filing the MCC is condoned. 4.
