1.
By this application, the applicant is seeking condonation of delay which is caused in preferring the criminal revision application for challenging the order of maintenance.
2.
It is the contention of the learned counsel for the applicant that the Family Court has issued notice. After receipt of notice, the applicant has engaged his counsel. Thereafter, by taking instructions and details, the counsel for the applicant has prepared and filed written statement on behalf of the applicant, but due to the ailment, he could not attend the proceedings. Applicant is suffering from heart ailment and angioplasty is already performed on him on 15/12/2021. In October, 2025, the applicant was served with the notice. Therefore, he contacted to his counsel and it revealed that the application is already disposed of. Due to his ailment, he could not attend the proceedings and therefore, he could not file revision also to challenge the said order and for this reason, he prays for condonation of delay.
