(1.) Present CM has been filed seeking condonation of 68 days delay in filing the present appeal.
(2.) Upon notice, defendant No. 1 did not turn up and was proceeded against ex-parte.
(3.) Defendant No. 2 filed his written statement inter alia contending that the suit is barred by time. He raised the plea that he is a bonafide purchaser for consideration and without notice and the agreement in question dated 27.12.1994 is a forged and fabricated document. It was also contended that the price of the land is much more than what has been mentioned in the impugned agreement to sell. Thus he prayed for dismissal of the suit.
