Judgment text as reported

The Province of Punjab through Secretary, Sports and Youth Affairs Department Lahore VS Sabir Ali Question of limitation---Government departments/appellants---No preferential treatment---Government departments cannot be treated differently from the ordinary litigants---The government departments are not entitled to any leniency while deciding the question of limitation---Cases of government departments must be assessed on the same standards applicable to public litigants and application for condonation of delay requires same scrutiny---Even otherwise, law favours the vigilant not the indolent---Relying on the internal correspondence amongst the government departments is not sufficient cause and plausible explanation for condonation of delay.
