Though we are not satisfied with the reasons stated in the applications for condonation of delay, we are inclined to condone the delay as it is not contested, but with a caution that the State as of habit should not use procedural wrangles as a shield to cover up delays in prosecuting matter before the court without putting forth good and sufficient reasons. 3. We hope public servants responsible for decision making act with required expediency as they are accountable to the court for such lapses. Delay is condoned. (J.N. PATEL, J.) (R.S. MOHITE, J.)
