The petitioner started having fever from 27.05.2022 and he could
visit his counsel only on 11.06.2022 and 28 (twenty eight) days were taken in
meeting the counsel. Thereafter, the conducting counsel preferred the present
application before this Court for condoning the delay of 194 days in filing an
appeal.
[4] The learned counsel appearing for the respondents submits that
there is no merit in the application and the said delay has no sanctioned materials
placed before this Court to condone the delay of 194 days in preferring the appeal.
[5] Upon consideration of the submissions made by the learned counsel
appearing for both parties, we are satisfied with the averments made by the
applicant in the present application to condone the delay of 194 days in preferring
the appeal. In such consensus, the delay of 194 days in preferring the appeal is
condoned and the present applications are allowed.
