4. All the respondents have been duly served but they have chosen not no appear before the Court.
5. Having considered the submissions of the learned advocates for the parties and having regard to the poverty of the applicants, who could not arrange the necessary funds for preferring an appeal within the period of limitation, in my considered opinion, constitutes a sufficient ground for condoning the delay. Thus, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the present case and in view of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in the case of Collector, Land Acquisition, Anantnag & Anr. v. MST. Katiji & Ors. [AIR 1987 SC 1353], the delay of 188 days caused in preferring the appeal is hereby condoned. The present Civil Application stands allowed. There shall be no order as to costs.
