CR No.3477 of 2024 (O&M) -22.

It is worth-while to mention here that at the time of assisting the Court, at the preliminary stage, in the present revision-petition, learned counsel appearing for the applicant has restricted his prayer to the issuance of direction to the trial Court to decide the afore-mentioned application (Annexure P-7) only, at the earliest possible.

Keeping in view the above-discussed limited prayer as made by learned counsel appearing for the applicant and also the fact that the afore-said application (Annexure P-7), as filed by the applicant, is pending adjudication for the last one year and without commenting or expressing any opinion on the merits of the above-referred application as well as CM No.423 of 2022, the revision-petition in hand is, hereby, disposed of, while confining the issuance of direction to the concerned trial Court only to extent of deciding the aforementioned application (Annexure P-7), in accordance with law, in the given set of facts and circumstances, as expeditiously as possible. 31.05.2024 (MEENAKSHI I.
