Item No. 141 08.12.2025 Court. No. 6 GB C.O. 3459 of 2025 Suman Bairagi Vs.

Paramita Mahato Bairagi Mr. Kingsuk Mandal, Ms. Gopa Das ... for the Petitioner.

1. By this application, the petitioner seeks expeditious disposal of J. Misc. Case No.04 of 2025, arising out of Matrimonial Suit No.564 of 2022, which is pending before the Additional District Judge, Special Court (Electricity Act) at Paschim Medinipur.

2. 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.

3. Under such circumstances, the revisional application is disposed of with a direction upon the learned court to dispose of the misc. case as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the next date fixed. Upon disposal of the misc. case, the learned court shall make sincere endeavour to dispose of the suit expeditiously, preferably within a period of one year, provided the husband pays the maintenance, if allowed by the court. In case of non-payment, the

suit shall not proceed. Adequate opportunity shall be given to the parties to contest the same.

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

5. The revisional application is accordingly disposed of.

6. There shall be no order as to costs.

7. Parties are to act on the server copy of this order. (Shampa Sarkar, J.)
