JUSTICE B.M.SHYAM PRASAD) Sri Praveen P. Tarikar, the learned counsel for the respondent, is permitted to file a Compliance Report. The complainant contends that the respondents have deliberately violated the undertaking given to the Writ Court in W.P. No. 102512/2024. The respondent’s undertaking is to complete construction of common wall within a certain timeframe. There is undeniably a delay in completion of the construction, but the respondents, who have now completed construction of the common wall in all respects, seek a lenient view tendering unconditional apology for the delay. In the light of the afore, the complaint stands dropped accepting the apology. Sd/- (B.M.SHYAM PRASAD) JUDGE Sd/- (RAMACHANDRA D. HUDDAR) JUDGE BVV/LIST NO.: 1 SL NO.: 16
