PC :

Heard rival submissions.

Respective applicants-claimants, in all these applications, are seeking condonation of delay of 2702 days which appears to be caused due to their fnancial crisis. The learned AGP strongly opposed the applications on the ground that the delay is not properly explained. The acquiring body, though served, but remained absent. However, considering the statutory right of the

{2} ca15021.22.odt applicants, the delay of 2702 days, in all these applications, stands condoned subject to the condition that the applicants shall not claim any interest for the aforesaid period of delay. The appeals be placed for admission after removal of offce objections, if any.

Civil Applications are disposed of.
