Mr. Lalit Belwal, the learned counsel for the respondent. We have heard the learned counsel for the appellants and we do not find any reason to condone the inordinate delay of 1025 days on their part in filing the appeal. The delay condonation application is rejected. Consequently, the special appeal is also dismissed on the ground of laches. (V.K. Bist, J.) (Tarun Agarwala, A.C.J.) 06.11.2009 Shiv/Bhaskar
