order before it without granting unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties, if there is no other legal impediment.

only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive authorities, counsels, parties to the case, staff etc. are also made bound by this order and it will be their responsibility also to assist the Court in every manner for the expeditious disposal of this case.
8. With the above observations, the application stands disposed of.
