3.
It is submitted at the Bar that due to the death of the original applicant, the proceedings in the aforesaid interlocutory applications had abated. It is further submitted that there has been delay in filing the present application for setting aside the abatement, which is liable to be condoned in the interest of justice, as the legal representatives of the deceased applicant have already been brought on record in RSA 301/2014 and the cause title thereof has been duly amended vide order dated 27.04.2026. 4. Heard the learned counsel for the respondent in the matter. 5. Having considered the submissions made and upon perusal of the records, this Court is of the view that sufficient cause has been shown for setting aside the abatement. Further, since the legal representatives of the deceased applicant have already been substituted in RSA 301/2014 and consequential amendment of the cause title has been carried out, no prejudice shall be caused to the respondent if the abatement is set aside in the present interlocutory proceedings. 6. Accordingly, the abatement of the proceedings in I.A.(C) No. 1805/2025, I.A.(C) No. 1807/2025 and I.A.(C) No. 1808/2025, in so far as it relates to the deceased applicant, is hereby set aside. 7. The interlocutory applications shall now proceed in accordance with law with the legal representatives already on record. 8. The application stands disposed of. JUDGE
