Case No. 636 of 2018 was initiated five years ago and till date, the same is pending. The petitioner submits that the petitioner is without any effective remedy and has to attend the court at regular intervals.

No unnecessary adjournment should be granted to either of the parties and cost be 2 imposed, if any attempt is made for delaying the trial of the case.
