(3.) Though the issue of limitation was initially raised in preferring the review petition, Mr. Kalita, learned Special Counsel, in his all fairness, has submitted that he will not press this issue in view of the fact that at the relevant time, Covid-19 pandemic was raging in this country, which may have contributed significantly to the delay in filing this petition.
