5. The Hon’ble Apex Court in the case of Sangram Sadashiv Suryavanshi vs. State of Maharashtra1 while relying upon the constitutional Bench judgment of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in High Court Bar Association, Allahabad vs. State of U.P.2, has deprecated the practice of the Courts issuing directions to the subordinate Courts to decide the matter within a timeline, the relevant extract of para 47.3 of High Court Bar Association, Allahabad (Supra) is reproduced as under:
“47.3. Constitutional courts, in the ordinary course, should refrain from fixing a time-bound schedule for the disposal of cases pending before any other courts. Constitutional courts may issue directions for the time- bound disposal of cases only in exceptional circumstances. The issue of prioritising the disposal of cases should be best left to the decision of the courts concerned where the cases are pending;"
6. Further, this Court is in respectful agreement with the
judgment of the High Court of Madras in S. Baby Vs. S.Sakkubai Ammal3, which re-iterated the principle of law laid down in the High Court Bar Association, Allahabad (Supra) where it was held as under:
"12. The practice of giving preference to any litigation without any justification at all circumstances to be avoided. Every litigant approaching the Court of Law is waiting for justice and thus, it must be done in a consistent manner and without discriminating the litigants. Therefore issuing directions indiscriminately for speedy disposal of cases would do no service to the cause of justice. Every urgency cannot be considered for issuing a direction for speedy disposal, and the urgency, which is imminent alone to be considered."
7. In that view of the matter, this Court is not inclined to issue a direction to the learned Rent Tribunal to decide the pending petition within a time-bound manner. The concerned Rent Tribunal is expected to regulate its own procedure in respect of the cases on board for effective disposal and to ensure that the cases are
disposed of expeditiously within a reasonable period of time; 1 2024 SCC OnLine SC 3526 2 2024 INSC 150 3 2023 SCC OnLine Mad 674
[2025:RJ-JP:42599] (3 of 3) [CW-16055/2025] however, it is expected that the learned Rent Tribunal will not entertain unnecessary and unwarranted requests for adjournment.
8. With the aforesaid direction, the present civil writ petition is
disposed of.
9. All pending application(s), if any, shall stand disposed of.
