DAO No. 69 of 2005 Hon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. (Delay Condonation Application No. 3017 of 2005) Heard learned counsel for the appellant on the delay condonation application and perused the affidavit filed in support thereto. The grounds taken in the affidavit are that the applicant/appellant could not file the appeal in time due to some unavoidable circumstances. It has also been averred in the affidavit that he could not collect the relevant documents and fell ill, therefore, this delay has been caused. The grounds taken in the affidavit are not satisfactory. What are those unavoidable circumstances on account of which he could not file the appeal within time? The deponent has also not produced any documents relating to his ailment. In view of the insufficient grounds mentioned by the applicant/appellant in the accompanying affidavit, I am of the view that there is no sufficient ground to ground in the affidavit to condone the delay in filing the appeal. Accordingly, the delay condonation application is rejected. Consequently, the appeal stands dismissed. (B.C. Kandpal, J.) 15.11.2006 ASWAL
