                                                                           DATE  : AUGUST 24, 2026
          P. C. :

          1.                This motion is moved for speaking to minutes of order dated

          20.08.2026.


          2.                Learned Counsel for the Appellant submits that though this

          Court had shown its disinclination to grant any relief, however, in the said

          order, it is not appearing. He, therefore, seeks correction in the said order to

          that extent.


          3.                This being inadvertent error, prayer for speaking to minutes is

          allowed.


          4.                After carrying out necessary corrections, fresh order be

          uploaded.



                                                                                  (R. M. JOSHI, J.)
