Judgment text as reported

MAHMOODI BEGUM VS MOHAMMAD EISA S. 5---Condonation of delay---Grounds---Counsel not available---Not a good ground for condonation of delay---Inalienable obligation of a litigating party is to keep itself abreast of the proceedings of the case and pursue the matter diligently as adjudication of a case cannot be left pending at the whims and caprice of the party to select the suitable time for challenging or pursuing the matter according to their own choice---Moreover, it is requirement of law that if the counsel is not available then the party itself must be present to pursue the case vigilantly and any communication gap between the counsel and the client is not a good ground for condonation of the delay---Adjudicating forum has to administer/regulate proceedings and also to make diligent/bona fide effort to decide the matter within shortest possible span of time whereas the indolent litigant is not entitled for any relief.
