SC Dismisses Special Leave Petition After 272-Day Delay; Pending Applications Disposed Of.
SC condoned a delay of 272 days in filing the Special Leave Petition. After hearing the merits presented by the Learned Additional Solicitor General, the SC dismissed the Special Leave Petition. All pending applications related to the case were disposed of.
There was a 272-day delay in filing the Special Leave Petition, but the Court nevertheless "heard learned Additional Solicitor General on merits of the case" and expressly "Delay condoned." After consideration on merits, the Court stated it was "not inclined to interfere in the matter" and accordingly "The Special Leave Petition is dismissed." All pending applications connected to the petition "shall stand disposed of." The decision thus reflects the exercise of discretion to excuse substantial procedural delay for a merits hearing, followed by refusal to grant relief under special leave, leaving the impugned order intact and concluding all ancillary proceedings.
