In view of the aforesaid submissions and for the reasons mentioned in the applications that the applicants are rustic and illiterate person having no knowledge about the legal procedure as well as they had a financial crisis, I find it justifiable to give reasonable opportunity to the applicants-appellants in the interest of justice to ventilate the grievances before the Appellate Forum. There is no impediment to condone the delay. There is sufficient cause to allow the applications for condonation of delay. In addition, the applicants/claimants have shown their willingness/ inclination that they will not claim statutory benefits as mentioned above. In such circumstances, by imposing aforesaid fetter of waiver of statutory benefits on the part of applicants-appellants, there would not be any impediment to condone the delay. The applications for condonation of delay deserve to be allowed.
