These revision petitions were clubbed together for hearing with revision petition No.3459-3517/2008.  Since we are disposing of these revision petitions on the ground of Delay, the same are separated.

          These revision petitions have been filed with a delay of 823 days which is over and above the statutory period of 90 days given for filing the revision petition.  Under the Consumer Protection Act,1986 authority under the Act is supposed to decide the complaint/appeal within 90 days from its filing where no evidence is required to be taken and in case where evidence is required to be taken, within 150 days.  The inordinate delay of 823 days cannot be condoned without sufficient cause being shown.  We have gone through the application for condonation of delay.  We are not satisfied with the cause shown.  Dismissed on the ground of ‘Delay’.

            It needs to be observed that the petitioner had filed the appeals before the State Commission with a delay of 182 days.  The State Commission has dismissed the appeals on the ground of Limitation.  The statutory period given for filing the appeal is 30 days.  Delay of six times over the period given for filing the appeal could not have been condoned.  The State Commission is right in dismissing the appeals on the ground of delay.
