Case Overview

  • Petitioners: Narhari Atree and others.
  • Respondents: M.P Paschi, Kshetra Vidyut Vitran Co Ltd. & others.
  • The petitions arise from impugned final judgments and orders dated 22-01-2025, 27-01-2025, and 09-10-2025 in several writ petitions (WP Nos. 41812/2024, 41786/2024, 41788/2024, 41804/2024) passed by the High Court of Madhya Pradesh, Jabalpur.
  • The High Court had directed the respondents to decide a representation matter, which had already been decided.
  • Petitioners sought condonation of delay in filing IA No. 229279/2026, IA No. 229282/2026, and IA No. 229283/2026, and exemption from filing O.T.

Final Outcome

  • The Court condoned the delay in refiling the applications.
  • It held that the Special Leave Petitions were filed beyond the prescribed time and therefore dismissed them on grounds of delay and lack of merit.
  • The Court directed that, if aggrieved by the representation order, the petitioners should directly challenge that order.
  • Any pending applications, if any, were ordered to stand disposed of.
