Hence, witnesses shall produce copies of proposed documents on record and that will be read in evidence. :2: :2: :2: Hence application is allowed." 3.

Mr.Walawalkar, learned senior counsel for the petitioners on instructions from the Legal Advisor of the petitioner-corporation submits that in pursuance of the aforementioned order the respondents have taken inspection of all the relevant documents in the office of the petitioners on the dates mentioned in the order. However, till today the respondents, have not made available a list of the documents to the petitioners of which they desire production in the court. Keeping that in view and taking overall facts and the impugned order into consideration I am satisfied that this petition need not be kept pending and the interest of justice would be met by the following order: :3: :3: :3: .
