20.8.2026 17 sb CRR 3317 of 2026 Abdul Qaiyum & Anr. Vs. The State of West Bengal & Anr. Ms. Diuyanshi Shaw …for the Petitioners In this application, the petitioners herein have prayed for a direction upon the court below for expeditious disposal of criminal revision no. 165 of 2022, presently pending before the learned Chief Judge, 2nd Fast Track Court, Calcutta. Being aggrieved by the inordinate delay caused in disposal of the said criminal revisional application, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the opposite party/defacto-complainant initiated Taltala Police Station case no. 392 of 2012 against the petitioners on 7.11.2012. Thereafter, the petitioners were discharged by the learned Metropolitan Magistrate, 7th Court, Calcutta by an order dated 10.5.2022 upon acceptance of final report wherein the Investigating officer submitted that the allegations were civil in nature. Aggrieved thereby, the opposite party/defacto-complainant preferred aforesaid revisional application being no. 165 of 2022, which was admitted on 9.9.2022 and has been kept pending till date without final adjudication. The matter has been repeatedly adjourned due to administrative reason, transfer of Presiding officers, absence of the court and resolution of the Bar association 2 though the petitioners have never sought any adjournment and they remain present on every date, demonstrating their readiness to proceed with the hearing. Since the revisional application is pending for disposal for nearly about four years, the petitioners have prayed for necessary direction upon the court below for early disposal of the said proceeding. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners, it appears that the prayer made by the petitioners is innocuous and if it is allowed in terms of the prayer made therein, the opposite parties will have no cause to prejudice and as such, the service of copy of application upon the opposite parties is hereby dispensed with. Having considered the submissions made on behalf of the petitioners and that the revisional application filed by the opposite party has been kept pending for disposal for more than three years, I find that the prayer made by the petitioners is justified and is required to be allowed to secure the ends of justice. In view of above, the instant application being CRR 3317 of 2026 is hereby disposed of with a direction upon the court below to make every endeavour for expeditious disposal of criminal revision no. 165 of 2022 and to make his best effort to dispose of the same preferably within a period of three months from the next date of hearing. 3 Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties upon compliance with all requisite formalities.
