IA NO: GA/1/2025

The Court: IA NO: GA/1/2025 is an application for condonation of

delay of 220 days in preferring the appeal from the order of the learned single

Judge dated March 12, 2025.

Although Mr. Datta opposes the prayer for condonation of delay, we

are satisfied with the averments in paragraphs 9 to 16 of the application that

the appellant was prevented by sufficient cause from filing the appeal within

the stipulated period. The fact that the appellant is a terminally ill patient is

available from the documents and, as such, we condone the delay of 220 days

in filing the appeal and we propose to take up the appeal.

Accordingly, IA NO.GA/1/2025 is allowed. APOT/303/2025 is restored

to its original file and number.

APOT/303/2025, WPO/1793/2023

Supplementary affidavit filed in court today, is taken on record.

The hearing of the appeal is adjourned for the day.
