EDU., SC, FINANCE MR. B. GOGOI (R-2, R-6 & R-7) BEFORE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ROBIN PHUKAN ORDER 18.08 .2025 Heard Mr. R. Islam, learned counsel for the petitioners and also heard Ms. P. Das, learned standing counsel for the respondents in Secondary Education Department. This application is preferred by the petitioners for restoration of WP(C) Page No.# 10/10 No.1166/2023 by setting aside the order of dismiss for default dated 13.06.2025. Mr. Islam, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that WP(C) No.1166/2023 was listed on 13.06.2025, but on account of his illness, he could not remain present in the Court on that day and therefore, this Court vide order dated 13.06.2025 has dismissed the WP(C) No.1166/2023 for non-prosecution. Ms. Das, learned standing counsel for the respondents in Secondary Education Department submits that she has no objection. Having heard the submission of learned counsel for both the parties, I have carefully gone through the petition and the documents placed on record and also perused the medical certificate at page No.22 of this petition, which shows that on 13.06.2025, the learned counsel for the petitioners was suffering from diarrhoea and abdominal pain. In view of the explanation so put forwarded for remaining absent of the learned counsel for the petitioners on 13.06.2025 and also taking note of the submission of Ms. Das, learned standing counsel for the respondents in Secondary Education Department, this application stands allowed. WP(C) No.1166/2023 is accordingly restored to file in its original number and list the same before the Court as soon as practicable. Comparing Assistant Sd/- Robin Phukan JUDGE
