ORDER
Date : 13-05-2026 (U.K. Nair, J) Heard Mr. N. Baruah, learned counsel for the applicants. Also heard Mr. N.K. Luikham, learned counsel appearing for the sole respondent.
2. The present interlocutory application has been instituted praying for condonation of a delay of 294 (two hundred ninety-four) days in instituting the connected writ appeal assailing the judgment & order dated 13.06.2024, passed by the learned Single Judge in WP(C)/91(K)/2019.
3. We have perused the reasons assigned in the interlocutory application for condonation of the delay in instituting the connected writ appeal. On perusal of the reasons so assigned we find that the applicants has brought on record sufficient cause justifying the delay in filing of the connected appeal. Accordingly, we are of the considered view that the delay of 294 days in filing the connected appeal would mandate to be condoned.
4. Accordingly, the delay of 294 days in filing the connected writ appeal stands condoned and the present interlocutory application stands disposed of.
