As per Shri Justice Shantanu S. Kemkar :                       

            This appeal is directed against the order dated 25.10.2012 passed by the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum, Rewa (for short ‘Forum’) in C.C.No.470/2010 whereby the Forum has dismissed the complaint for want of prosecution.

2.                     For the reasons stated in the appeal, we find that there was sufficient cause for absence of appellant before the Forum when the case was called. In the circumstances, by condoning the absence of appellant, we restore the complaint to its original number by setting aside the impugned order.

3.                     Parties are directed to appear before the Forum on 17.03.2020.

4.                     With the aforesaid directions, the appeal is disposed of.
