JUSTICE YARENJUNGLA LONGKUMER ORDER Date : 16/09/2026 Heard learned counsel, Ms. S. Ahmed for the applicant is present. Also heard Ms. R. Hussain for the respondent No. 1/Bajaj Allianz General Insurance Company Limited. 2. At the outset, the learned counsel for the respondent No. 1 prays that she may be allowed to file an objection in the instant application. 3. This application has been filed under Section 5 of the Limitation Act praying for condoning 29 days in filing the connected appeal against the impugned judgment and award dated 09.03.2026 in MAC Case No. 1371/2021 passed by the learned MACT No. 3 Kamrup(M), Guwahati. The applicant has explained the reasons for the delay at paragraph 3, 4, 5 & 6 of the application. This Court has perused the same and finds that sufficient cause has been shown by the applicant explaining the delay of 29 days. This Court is of the view that no useful purpose will be served by allowing the respondent to file objection in the instant case. Accordingly, the delay of 29 days in filing the connected appeal is condoned and the application is allowed. 4. The respondent Nos. 2 & 3 are struck off from the array of respondents as their presence is not necessary in the instant application. Page No.# 3/3 5. The Registry shall registered the main MAC Appeal and list the same for Admission hearing after 1 (one) week. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
