ORDER

This application has been filed seeking condonation of delay in filing application to file additional documents in support of the plaint. According to learned counsel appearing for the applicant, the petition mentioned documents are essential to prove the case and the plaintiff obtained those documents from the Auditor belatedly and hence they are unable to file the same along with the plaint. Learned counsel appearing for the respondents strongly objected this application on the ground that those documents are no-way connected with the suit.

Heard the learned counsel appearing on either side and perused the materials.

Considering the nature of application and the reasons stated in the affidavit, the delay is condoned. The documents shall be received, subject to proof, relevancy and admissibility of the same. However, the respondents are at liberty to raise objections, if any, at the time of marking of the documents.
