Considering the same, this Court is of the view that one more opportunity can be given to the petitioner herein. Hence, the petitioner is directed to conduct the cross examination of P.W.1 in above referred Calendar Case on the date fixed by the learned trial Judge without fail. If the petitioner fails to cross-examine P.W.1 on the date fixed by the learned trial Judge, the present order shall stand cancelled.

Accordingly, the Criminal Petition is disposed of.
