STATE OF MANIPUR vs TH. SAMSON SINGH .

The Supreme Court allowed the appeal against the Gauhati High Court's order dismissing the writ appeal due to non-acceptance of the application for condonation of delay. The Court held that the delay should be condoned as the appellants complied with a prior order to deposit Rs.3,00,000. The High Court is directed to dispose of the writ appeal on merits within three months, ensuring no unnecessary adjournments. The impugned order was set aside, and the appeal was allowed without costs.
