In those circumstances, the petitioner was called to submit a fresh application along with the relevant documents which were in fact submitted by the petitioner. Thereafter, the same was processed and the proceedings, dated 28.03.2017, were issued. In the

CKR, J C.C.No.275 of 2017 circumstances, there was some delay occurred in complying with the orders of this Court.
