The Court, after hearing counsel, held a tentative view that no interference with the High Court order was required.
However, recognizing the petitioner's plea, the Court exercised discretion to grant a final indulgence.

The Court directed that the matter be listed for further hearing on 07‑08‑2026, allowing the petitioner to submit the insurance policy.
Respondent No.2 (Insurance Company) is permitted to file its counter‑affidavit before the next listing.
The operation of the impugned High Court order dated 11‑03‑2025 shall remain stayed until the next listing.

Petitioner must bring the insurance policy on record by the listing date of 07‑08‑2026.
Respondent No.2 must file its counter‑affidavit within the same period.

No interference with the High Court judgment apart from the stay; the stay remains effective.
The Court’s directions are enforceable, and any non‑compliance may invite further contempt or procedural consequences as per law.
