Counsel for the Respondent disputes the medical record on the ground that the same is not signed by any doctor and does not bear the seal of the hospital. 5. Considering the fact that even earlier, a substantial amount of reduction has already been made for the pre-deposit, the prayer which is not supported by proper documents would not be liable to be acceded to. 6.

Counsel on record, extension is granted till 10th November, 2025 to the Petitioner for making the pre-deposit. No further extension shall be granted to the Petitioner. 7.
