In order dated 29.06.2018 passed by this Court it was recorded that on 25.06.2018, learned counsel for the respondent No. 1 had requested and was granted time to get instructions. On 29.06.2018, the said counsel ensured

The said process shall be completed within three months from the receipt of this order.
