Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in dismissing the revision petition on the grounds of a 36-day delay in filing, as the appellants demonstrated sufficient cause for condonation of delay. The Court emphasized the importance of considering the merits of the case over procedural delays. Consequently, the impugned order was set aside, and the matter was remitted back to the High Court for a decision on merits.
