4. I have considered the submissions and perused the entire record.
5. It appears from the perusal of the record that this matter pertains to POCSO Act but the trial court is not taking required interest in disposal of the case which requires speedy trial being a case under POCSO Act.
6. In the circumstances, the Court concerned is directed to decide the aforesaid case expeditiously keeping in view the work load of that Court and also the cooperation rendered by the applicant of this case. It is further directed that no unnecessary adjournment will be sought/granted.

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.
