Per Shri A.Z.Khwaja, Hon’ble Presiding Member.

Appellant and advocate absent. Appellant has filed an  application for condonation of delay of  two months in preferring the appeal. Appellant has taken a plea that the impugned order was passed by the Additional District Consumer Commission Nagpur on 30/08/2018 and it was necessary to prefer appeal latest by 30/11/2018, but there was delay of two months. Appellant has further contended that he could not prefer the appeal as his counsel was busy in other matters. I have also heard advocate Mr.Girish Meshram for respondent Nos.1 and 2 as well as advocate Mr.Agnihotri for respondent No.3. Bare perusal of the application for condonation of delay shows that no specific reason or cause much less satisfactory cause has been given by the present applicant for the delay of two months for preferring the appeal. On the other hand appellant has taken a plea that his counsel was busy in other matters which can by no stretch of imagination be termed as satisfactory ground for condonation of delay. As such though there is delay of two months in preferring the appeal, the same has not been explained properly or in a satisfactory manner and so the same can not be condoned. Application for condonation of delay is hereby rejected.

//ORDER//

1. Delay condonation application is hereby rejected.
2. Appeal is dismissed as time barred.
