Virdhe, Mr. S.W.Munde ...

CORAM : SANDIPKUMAR C. MORE, J.

DATE : 22.02.2023 PER COURT :

Heard rival submissions. The respective applicants are seeking condonation of huge delay periods of 21 years and 135 days and 20 years and 125 days respectively. The learned AGP strongly opposed the applications on the ground that there is huge delay which is not explained properly. Further there is also circulation delay. However, this Court Bench at Nagpur has already condoned delay of 28 years in one land acquisition matter. In view of the same and considering the

statutory right of the applicants, the aforesaid delay periods stand condoned subject to condition that the applicants shall not claim any interest for the aforesaid periods of delay and delay in circulating the matter, belatedly.

2.

Appeals be placed for admission after removal of office objections, if any.

3.

Applications are disposed of accordingly.

(SANDIPKUMAR C. MORE) JUDGE .....
