Though Constitution Bench judgment of Apex Court in High Court Bar Association, Allahabad vs. State of Uttar Pradesh and others (2024) 6 SCC 267 held that Constitution Courts should refrain from fixing a time-bound schedule for the disposal of cases pending before any other courts but looking to the facts of the case that the civil suit was filed way back in the year 1998 and more than 37 years have elapsed and the suit in at the stage of plaintiff's evidence but Court below till date has not decided the said suit, no useful purpose would be served in keeping the matter pending or calling for counter affidavit or issuing notice to private respondent, the court below is hereby directed to proceed with Original Suit No.548 of 1998 on day to day basis, without granting any adjournment to either of the parties, and decide the same expeditiously, in accordance with law, after hearing all affected parties, preferably within a period of one year from the date of production of certified copy of this order. 4.
