Learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits as follows. The opposite party was granted bail on 13.02.2019. The opposite party was not cooperating with the investigation. Therefore, the petitioner had filed an application for cancellation of bail on 10.11.2021. After that several dates went past, but the application for cancellation of bail could not be heard out. The application has remained pending for no fault of the present petitioner.

Learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the opposite party submits as follows. Another application, filed by the opposite party, is also pending disposal. The opposite party has not contributed to any delay in disposal of the application for cancellation of bail. It was the fault of the petitioner that they were having dates preponed and this created a confusion.

preponement of dates. The opposite party would not come in the way if a direction is passed to expedite the disposal of the application.

I have heard submissions of the learned counsels appearing on behalf of the petitioner and opposite party and have perused the revision petition.

It appears that the next date fixed for hearing of the application cancellation of bail is on 03.03.2022. It appears that there is also a direction that this application would be heard along with an application filed by the opposite party. By an order dated 22nd November, 2021, both the applications were directed to be heard together. The allegations levelled in this application by the petitioner are not admitted by the opposite party. Regardless of whoever might be responsible for the delay in disposing of the application for cancellation of bail, let the application along with the other application filed by the opposite party be heard out by the learned trial court as expeditiously as possible on the next date fixed for hearing or within two months from such next date.

With these observations, the revisional application is disposed of Urgent photostat certified copy of this order may be supplied to the parties expeditiously, if applied for. (Jay Sengupta, J.)
