JUSTICE N. UNNI KRISHNAN NAIR ORDER Date : 13-08-2026 Heard Mr. T. Son, learned counsel for the applicant. Also heard Ms. K. Wangmo, learned Government Advocate, Arunachal Pradesh appearing for the respondent Nos. 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 10 and Mr. R. Milo, learned standing counsel, PWD (HW) appearing for the respondent Nos. 3, 7 and 8. The present interlocutory application has been instituted praying for condonation of delay of 566 days in preferring the connected review petition. A perusal of the contention raised in the present interlocutory application towards justifying the delay occasioned in the matter, although the explanation is found to be scratchy, the petitioner has projected that he was incapacitated on account of certain psychological issues, which has prevented him from instituting the connected review petition in time. It is also noticed by this Court that earlier, the review petition was listed, but the same was withdrawn with liberty to file afresh along with the condonation of delay petition. Although, the learned counsel for the respondents have vehemently objected to the condonation of delay, however, this Court finds that the issue raised would be mandated to be considered on merit and accordingly, the delay in preferring the connected review petition stands condoned. Page No.# 4/4 Interlocutory application stands disposed of. Registry to list the connected review petition being Review Petition No. 05/2024 after 04 weeks. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
