Syed Zaighum Meerza v. Board Of Auqaf West Bengal Rep By Chief Executive Officer And ANR

14.12.2023 Sl. No.253(DL) srm C.O. No. 3557 of 2023 Syed Zaighum Meerza

Versus

The Board of Auqaf, West Bengal & Anr.

Mr. Iftekar Munshi, Mr. Oishik Chatterjee, Mr. Aniruddha Chanda ...for the Petitioner.

The petitioner prays for expeditious disposal of O.A. No.28 of 2022, which is pending before the learned Waqf Tribunal, West Bengal.

Considering the submission, this Court is of the view that the prayer of the petitioner for early disposal of the application, 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 parties.

Under such circumstances, the revisional application is disposed of, with a direction upon the learned Waqf Tribunal to dispose of the application within a period of six months from the next date fixed, independently and strictly in

accordance with law, upon allowing the parties to contest the proceeding. Unnecessary adjournments shall not be granted to any of the parties.

This Court has not gone into the merits of the application.

A copy of the revisional application along with a server copy of this order be served upon the opposite parties within a week.

The revisional application is, thus, disposed of. There will be, however, no order as to costs. Parties are to act on the basis of the server copy of this order.
