By this application, the petitioner seeks expeditious disposal of the Title Suit No.695 of 2018 along with connected applications, which are pending before the learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), 3rd Court at Barasat. Considering the submissions, this Court is of the view that the prayer of the petitioner is innocuous. Neither party stands to lose if a proceeding is disposed of expeditiously. In fact, such expeditious disposal shall enure to the benefit of the parties. Hence, there is no requirement for service of prior notice upon the opposite party.

Under such circumstances, the revisional application is disposed of with a direction upon the learned court to make a sincere endeavour to dispose of the suit along with the applicaitons within a period of two years from the next date fixed. Adequate opportunity shall be given to the parties to contest the same.

This court has neither expressed any opinion on the merits of the application nor on the merits of the suit. The learned court shall proceed independently and in accordance with law.

A copy of the revisional application, along with a server copy of this order be served upon the opposite party and/or the learned advocate contesting the matter on behalf of the opposite party in the learned court below.

The revisional application is accordingly disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
