Holding
The court held that the delay is condoned and the application is allowed as per prayer Clause “C”.
Summary
The petitioner, Namdeo Keshavrao Pawar, filed a civil application before the Bombay High Court seeking condonation of delay in his proceedings against the State of Maharashtra and others. The application relied on a specific prayer clause (Clause “C”) requesting that the court excuse the delay and permit the continuation of the suit. The respondents, represented by the Attorney General of India, opposed the condonation, arguing that the delay was unjustified. The bench, after hearing counsel, found that the reasons provided for the delay were sufficient to merit relief. Consequently, the court exercised its discretion under the Civil Procedure Code to condone the delay and ordered that the pending office objections be removed within four weeks.
