JUDGMENT Jay Sengupta, J. - This is an application seeking an expeditious disposal of a proceeding. 2. Affidavit of service filed on behalf of the petitioners is taken on record. 3. Despite service, no one appears on behalf of the defacto complianant. 4. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners submits as follows. The petitioner no.2 is a Government servant and is under suspension because of the pendency of the impugned proceeding. Although the First Information Report was lodged in 2015, charges could be framed only in 2018. Even thereafter, at least on five successive dates no witness appeared during trial. The matter has remained pending for no fault on the part of the present petitioners. 5. I have heard the submissions of the learned counsels appearing on behalf of the respective parties and have perused the revision petition. 6. It appears that on several dates no witness appeared during trial. Sometimes, some of the accused were also absent. The proceeding has remained pending for an unduly long time. 7. Be that as it may, it will subserve the ends of justice if the trial of the case is expedited. 8. In view of the above and in the interest of justice, the learned trial court is requested to conclude the proceeding as expeditiously as possible without granting any unnecessary adjournment to any of the parties, preferably within a period of one year from the next date of hearing. 9. With these observations, the revisional application is disposed of. 10. Urgent photostat certified copy of this order may be supplied to the parties expeditiously, if applied for, on usual undertakings.
