ORAL ORDER

(PER : HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MRS. JUSTICE SUNITA AGARWAL)

1. This is a wholly misconceived appeal filed on behalf of the State, challenging the judgment and order dated 15.03.2022 passed by the learned Single Judge with the inordinate unexplained delay of 1176 days. The averments in the delay condonation application are not sufficient
