In view of Sec.144(4) of Cr.P.C. this order dt. 20th October, 2000 cannot now remain in force and effective because such type of order passed under Sec.144(1) of Cr.P.C. can remain in force and effective only for two months from the date of making of that order. In view of this, the effect of impugned order has now lapsed on 20th December, 2000.

In view of the statement made by Shri B.Y.Mankad, the learned APP. for revision opponents, this Criminal Revision Application has now become infructuous, and therefore, this Criminal Revision Application stands disposed of as having become infructuous.
