ORDER
02.09.2026 (ROBIN PHUKAN, J) Heard Ms. V. Suokhrie, learned Additional Advocate General for the applicants.
2. This application is preferred by the applicants for dispensing with production of clear copies of documents pertaining to damage compensation in filing the connected Writ Appeals, and also for issuing direction to the Filing Section of the Registry to register the connected Writ Appeals, filed by the applicants.
3. Ms. Suokhrie, learned Additional Advocate General for the applicants, submits that the clear copies will be produced at the time of final hearing, though the same could not be enclosed with the writ appeal due to some inconvenience and as such, she has contended to allow this interlocutory application and to direct the Registry to register the writ appeals.
4. Accordingly, taking note of the submission of Ms. Suokhrie, learned Additional Advocate General for the applicants, this interlocutory application stands allowed.
5. However, it is provided that clear copies of the documents, pertaining to Damage Compensation, shall be produced before the Court, at the time of final hearing.
6. Further, it is provided that the Registry shall register the connected writ appeals and shall list the same before the Court, as soon as practicable.
7. In terms of the above, this interlocutory application stands disposed of.
