ORDER

This revision petition has been filed under Section 21(b) of the Act 1986 in challenge to the Order dated 04.02.2016 of the State Commission in appeal no. 153 of 2008 arising out of the Order dated 12.02.2008 of the District Commission in complaint no. 36 of 2007.

2. We have heard the learned counsel for the insurance co. (the petitioner herein) as also learned counsel for the complainant (the respondent herein) and the complainant in person. We have also perused the record including inter alia the Order dated 12.02.2008 of the District Commission, the impugned Order dated 04.02.2016 of the State Commission, the application for condonation of delay and the petition.

3. This petition has been filed with reported delay of 64 days.

The learned counsel for the insurance co. has no objection to the delay being condoned, and submits that the petition may be decided on merit.

In the interest of justice, and considering the reasons mentioned in the application for condonation of delay, as also considering the submission of the learned counsel for the insurance co., as well as to decide the matter on merit rather than to dismiss it on the threshold of limitation, the delay is condoned
