       Perused affidavit in support of the notice of motion and say. Heard both sides.
       Apart from the reasons, mentioned in the affidavit, Ld. Adv. for the plaintiff submitted that due to COVID-19 restrictions in the wake of pandemic, the defendant no. 3 could not file his written statement on record. However, in Misc. application No. 665 of 2021 in SMW (C) No. 3/2020 dtd. 27.4.2021, as mentioned in the affidavit of the plaintiff period exempted by the Honble Supreme Court is from 15.03.2020 to 02.10.2021. On the other hand, the D-3 himself has contended that papers and proceedings were served upon him on 25.02.2020, therefore, reasons put forth on the ground of COVID-19 pandemic are not acceptable.
