Holding

The court held that the 36‑day delay in filing the revision may be condoned.

Summary

The State of Maharashtra filed a criminal revision application (No. 3281 of 2026) seeking condonation of a 36‑day delay in filing the revision. The respondent, Balaji Keshav Bhosale, was served but no counsel appeared on his behalf. The sole issue before the court was whether the delay could be condoned under procedural law. The court, after considering the reasons set out in the application, decided that the delay was excusable. Consequently, the application for condonation was allowed and a notice was issued to the respondent to appear on 7‑October‑2026.
