Heard learned counsel for the applicant and learned A.G.A for the State as also perused the record. 2. This application under Section 529 BNSS has been filed seeking direction to the court concerned for early disposal of Criminal Case No. 260 of 2023 (State Vs. Arun Kumar), arising out of Case Crime No. 133 of 2023, under Sections- 380, 411, 420, 406 I.P.C., Police Station- Mundali , District- Meerut, pending before the court of Civil Judge, J.D./F.T.C., Court No. 41, Meerut. 3. Learned counsel for the applicant submits that after submission of the charge-sheet, the court concerned took cognizance on 13.12.2023 and proceeded with the trial against O.P. No. 2. The trial of the case is pending for the last about three years and till date, only one witness has been examined. From the order sheets, it is evident that O.P. No. 2 is not appearing regularly before the trial court and is deliberately delaying and protracting the proceedings. It is also evident from the order sheets that on several occasions, NBWs have been issued against O.P. No. 2. 4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and without expressing any opinion on the merits of the case, this application is finally disposed of with a direction to the court concerned to conclude the trial of the aforesaid case in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of one year from the date of presentation of a certified copy of this order, without granting any unnecessary or long adjournments to either of the parties, if there is no other legal impediment.
