Heard learned counsel for the applicant as well as learned A.G.A. for the State. 3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the applicant that the case pertains to the year 2010 and at present is pending at the stage of defence evidence but the Court concerned is not taking proper interest in disposal of the said case and the same is lingering on unnecessarily. 4. I have considered the submissions and perused the entire record. 5. It reveals from the perusal of the order sheets that the case is pending since 2010 and is at the stage of recording the defence evidence. The case falls within the category of 'critically old cases'. In the circumstances, the Court concerned is directed to make all endeavours for expeditious disposal of the case preferably within six months from the date of production of certified copy of this order before it, if there is no legal impediment. It is further directed that no unnecessary adjournment will be sought/granted. 6. It is also made clear that the Court / Presiding Officer is not the only stake holder in the trial and disposal of a case, hence, besides the P.O. concerned, all the stake holders i.e. police and executive 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. 7. With the above observations, the application stands disposed of. Order Date :- 18.7.2025 safi Digitally signed by :- MAHBOOB SAFI High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
