Heard Mr. Yadav, learned Advocate for Petitioner and Mr. Jain, learned Advocate for Respondent.

2.

Request is made by Mr. Jain that on 05.12.2025 at the time of rising in the evening stating that in the morning session order was passed in present Misc. Petition allowing the said Petition in view of the absence of Respondent and his Advocate. He would submit that on that date, he was engaged in another matter before another Court and that is the reason why he could not come to Court. He would submit that Respondent (Org. Petitioner) has a good case on merits which he has voiced to me today. He would therefore persuade the Court to set aside the order dated 05.12.2025 and permit the
